The subsolar (solid curve) and sub-Earth (dashed curve) latitudes for H-B as a function of time, based on our preliminary derived pole orientation from our jet modeling (see Section 3.6 for details). Note that the subsolar latitude only moves significantly northward in the latter half of 1996. Also note the strong asymmetry about perihelion in both curves.
