Description

Since I needed to offload the previous RGB, a process which involves freeing a USB port for an external drive, I decided to capture some deep-red/infrared data while I had the USB hub for the focuser and filter wheel disconnected.

Notes:

    [li]The North Temperate Belt is nothing more than a faint line.[/li]

    [li]The North Equatorial Belt has a new rift past the central meridian.[/li]

    [li]The Equatorial Zone contains an intense festoon approaching the CM.[/li]

    [li]Even though the EZ has traded its typical white color for orange in RGB images, it still looks normal in infrared.[/li]

    [li]The teal spot on the SEBn in the RGB image is very dark in infrared.[/li]

    [li]There is a bright spot past the CM just off the SEBs.[/li]

    [li]Oval BA is approaching the CM with the STB Ghost trailing it.[/li]

    [li]There is a subtly dark feature setting on the South Temperate Belt. Is this a new STB structured segment?[/li]

    [li]The South Polar Red Spot is setting.[/li]
