Selected Huygens "triplets"

Selected Huygens "triplets"
Selected Huygens "triplets" Huygens' Descent Imager Spectral Radiometer had three separate cameras: a side-looking imager, a medium-resolution imager, and a high-resolution imager, whose fields of view overlapped, producing strips of images with varying resolution from the horizon to directly beneath the spacecraft. The data were returned as "triplets" -- each vertical triplet contains frames captured simultaneously by the three cameras. These triplets are out of chronological order.
