Description: New Horizons LORRI observations of Jupiter's outer moon Himalia, resolved as a disc. Various observation times show changes in Himalia's phase angle (denoted φ) as the spacecraft passed by the Jupiter system in 2007. These images of Himalia have been bicubically scaled 4x and digitally processed from raw images taken on 6 March 2007. The raw images can be downloaded from NASA's PDS Small Bodies Node: https://pdssbn.astro.umd.edu/holdings/nh-j-lorri-3-jupiter-v3.0/dataset.shtml
