Sorry... have to work for a living .. and couldn't post till now.

I do understand your point and it was my first thought. But when you see an image from it behind a planet that makes it very strange.
I strongly believe that Nasa as been doing home work. On the 26.10.2009 Nasa did the 2nd satellite rotation. The first was just a correction so that we couldn't see it... the last one was at leest 270º rotation. Now if they did that the flaw should be in a different position shouldn't it ?

Also when you see an image from a planet reflecting Sun light.. many times in the image you see a strip of light. Like this..

stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov...

Now take a good look at todays images..

stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov...

stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov...

stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov...

Can you see a strip of dark Light, a strip shadow ??

What about Its position after rotatin ..??

I do not believe it to be a flaw... maybe it is.. but.. something isn't right.

Yes... I know that.. you're right about it.

quote:

"Basically, as the wells of the CCD are read off, strong signals can leave behind trails as they migrate towards the reader."

So are you saying that this is caused by a strong signal ???

stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov...

Because if you are... that isn't a flaw... do you see my point ?

I do understand you.. because that is the big problem.. the question..

Is it a flaw.. ??' I do not believe it to be.. can I prove it without any dought ?

No... not now.

But recent events ... changes... all connected to stereo observations makes me thing.. a lot.

I'm afraid I don't see your point; a signal is a signal as far as a CCD's readout trail is concerned. A CCD doesn't care if the signal (positive or negative) is genuine or the result of an artifact like an electron trap, it'll act the way it always does regardless.

Electrons try to migrate from above the electron trap to the readout, they hit the electron trap and a portion remain as the wells are not being properly completely cleared with each migration, plus some stay stuck in the trap itself causing a dark streak. Make sense?

No it doesn't. Not to me.

Not trying to explain this situation.

Because if it was a flaw .. and using your explanation you wouldn't be able to see the "flaw" behind a planet... it wouldn't show. The light refleted from the planet would make it impossible to see the "flaw".

Take a look at this sequence.

If I'm wrong ..sorry. Do explain it to me.

And Thanks .

Astroether maybe? Was there any planet alignments when that black artifact appeared? Like sun -venus-mars? At least 3planets alignment?

That's unfortunate. I don't know how to explain the principle of electron traps leaving streaks as pixels migrate to the reader any simpler than that.

I didn't say that. That would depend on the strength of the electron trap.

The light refleted from the planet would make it impossible to see the "flaw".

Take a look at this sequence.

I see a single column of dead pixels running the length of the CCD when the planet sits on the electron trap (which is not a flaw, it's an electron trap - a flaw implies a permanent problem, electron traps can be cleared by bakeouts). Single columns of dead pixels are extremely indicative of a CCD issue, not a real object. I'm amazed you thought it was a real object because of a dead column.

Looks like dead pixels from an over-exposure. Even the occulting disk has "pixel noise" in it when it should theoretically be pitch black if the CCD had no natural noise level. This black streak thing is just dead, not even background noise.
