While the Voyager scientists fanned out across the world to share their findings with colleagues, attention at JPL turned to Voyager 2. In response to the discoveries of the first encounter, changes were required in the sequencing of scientific observations for July. Voyager 2, still troubled by a faulty receiver, might require more coddling from the spacecraft team than had its sister spacecraft, now safely on the way to Saturn. [Illustration: The particles of the rings of Jupiter are stronger reflectors of red light than of blue, as can be seen in this view, assembled from two images taken in orange and violet light. Since the images were registered on the rings, not the planet, the bright bands of colors along the edge of Jupiter are an artifact of misalignment. [P-21779]] CHAPTER 7 THE SECOND ENCOUNTER: MORE SURPRISES FROM THE “LAND” OF THE GIANT Approaching Jupiter At the beginning of July, the dry summer heat had returned to Pasadena, and so had the press. The scientists had come days or weeks earlier to look at data being transmitted from the second Voyager as it approached Jupiter and its satellites. The mood at JPL seemed quieter than it had been in March for Voyager 1, although the press room would once again be deluged with observers on the day of encounter. This would be our second good, close look at the Jovian system, but it was to be no summer rerun. Voyager 2 would have a different view of each world, and, in addition, both Io and Jupiter had undergone changes, as though to ensure that no one would become bored and fall asleep in front of a TV monitor. In a sense, this encounter was to be another first look at Jupiter and its satellites, with a view of each object that was quite different from what had been seen before.
