PDS: The Planetary Atmospheres Node
ORTON’S LONG-TERM INFRARED OBSERVATIONS OF JUPITER
The program that generated these datasets was funded by NASA to monitor Jupiter in the infrared, providing a long- term temporal and spatial context to support the encounters of several spacecraft with the planet.
MIRAC data span from July 1994 to September 1999 and wavelengths from 4.8 to 20.8 μm using the Mid-Infrared Spectrometer and Imagers (MIRAC) and (MIRAC2) at NASA’s Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF).
MIRLIN data span from January 1996 to March 2003 and wavelengths from 4.68 to 24.48 μm using the Mid-Infrared Spectrometer and Imager (MIRLIN) at NASA’s Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF).
MIRSI data span from December 2003 to September 2011and wavelengths from 4.68 to 24.48 μm using the Mid-Infrared Spectrometer and Imager (MRISI) at NASA’s Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF).
