   The sharpest image ever taken of Venus.

   From the Japanese spacecraft Akatsuki.

   The dark side shines in the infrared, which is how this photo was taken.

   It's real!

     @OnlyU Nope, that's not the sharpest image of Venus ever.
     
     How do I know ? Because I'm the author of that picture, and you have a choice : delete your post or use the proper credits.
     
     "JAXA/DARTS/ISAS/Damia Bouic"
     
     I'm tired of the forever repost of the same picture where the credit line is cut out, with always the same commentary.
     
     We're not on Twitter here, okay ?

     @cy @DamiaB What a profoundly thick-witted take.

     No. She took the raw data from the cameras and turned them into data visualizations. Hence her name being *LAST* in a chain of attributions and her claim to be the author of the photo in question, not the lens assembly and CCD that captured the original raw data.
