An image of Venus taken by the Akatsuki's LIR (longwave InfraRed) camera on April 15, 2016 at 17:15 JST, and the Akatsuki's altitude was 63 000 km at that time. Images with this wavelength represent temperature distribution of the top of clouds. This image clearly shows the high temperature region of the South Pole area.
