Return to SSI Education and Public Outreach HomepageSelected images and data obtained by NASA/JPL's Galileo mission have been available on an ongoing basis during the spacecraft's journey through the Jovian system in order to share with the public the excitement of exploration and new discoveries being made via the Galileo spacecraft. Galileo scientists have a one year period set aside for the process of calibrating and validating the full data sets. The full digital images necessary for scientific analysis are released within one year of receipt of an orbit's last data.

To accomodate the various needs of the scientific community, the archived files are raw data files which merge the multiple downlinks of data to provide the best final version of an image. Supporting data such as calibration files are also available. Such files include dark currents, radiometric calibrations, blemishes, hot pixels, etc..
