Observations of Jupiter's ring made ​​by FTIR at the University of Hawaii in 1994 infrared telescope. We distinguish the satellite Amalthea on the 3rd picture up (at the left end of the ring), and then on the fourth picture below (on the left edge of Jupiter). Metis is visible on the far right of the ring on the three bottom images.
