The first image from the NUADU instrument taken on 14 September 2004 at 12:19 UT when TC-2 was located on the night-side of the Earth. The y-axis of each image is along sectors 1-16 (1 looks to the south and 16 to the north of the ecliptic). The four images are for four different energy ranges (approximately <50keV, >50 keV, >100 keV, >150 keV from bottom to top). The black region is the Earth where no ENA emissions are produced.
