Brian BurnsVoyager 1 approaches Jupiter in 1979, as seen through the narrow-angle camera through various filters (blue, green, orange, ultraviolet).
These are the rawest images available, with reseau marks used for geometric correction still visible. Voyager sent back 800x800 b&w images.
The movie is made from volumes 4-5 (out of 20 volumes). Volumes 1-3 feature Jupiter taken at larger intervals, and volumes 6+ include wide-angle views, the moons, larger views of Jupiter, etc.
In order to make color images the blue, green, and orange filter images would need to be combined.

Voyager 1 flew by Saturn in November 1980. This video assembles the images into movies where possible. Moon sizes are included relative to width of Earth's moon.

Colors are not balanced yet, and there are still some jitters in the Jupiter rotation segment.Voyager 1 Io encounter (Moon of Jupiter), v0.46Brian Burns2016-08-20 | What look like volcanoes going off all over the surface during the approach are remnants of the 'reseau' marks (grid of dots) - will have those cleaned up eventually. But note there are actual volcanoes that you can see on the limbs in the large approach images.
The plan is to have all these frames colorized eventually using the low-res color information, with mosaics generated also. The last frame is a mosaic created by the USGS to show what that might look like.Voyager 2 Uranus system flyby v0.43Brian Burns2016-08-08 | work in progressVoyager 1 Io approach v0.43Brian Burns2016-08-08 | work in progressVoyager 1 Jupiter color rotation movie v0.41Brian Burns2016-08-03 | automatically centered and colorized - still has some glitches - mainly miscentered framesVoyager 2 Uranus system flyby color/bw v0.40Brian Burns2016-07-29 | Work in progressUranus Voyager 2 wide angle color v0.36Brian Burns2016-07-23 | ...Uranus Voyager 2 narrow-angle color v0.36Brian Burns2016-07-23 | Rough draft - will combine with wide-angle color and do more stabilizationVoyager 2 Uranus flyby wide-angle camera bw v0.34Brian Burns2016-07-19 | ...Voyager 2 Ariel flyby (moon of Uranus) v0.34Brian Burns2016-07-19 | ...Voyager 2 Triton flyby v0.32 b&w, moon of Neptune, 1989Brian Burns2016-07-16 | Automatically centered using Hough center detection, hence the jitteriness.

Note Triton orbiting the planet in a retrograde direction. The Voyagers sent back 70k+ images but the camera pointing information was not accurate, so they need stabilization (i.e. aligning the target in each image and in the color frames). This video was assembled from images taken with the narrow angle camera through the different color filters, which accounts for some of the flickering. This is version 0.1, using PyVoyager - github.com/bburns/PyVoyager. More videos here - youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxP4UgQGtMiLvyKjT7BQ-ht905VvNSaFP.
