Titan from about 810.000 Km
|
Caption NASA originale:"The bright and dark regions near the center of the frame are features on Titan's surface. The image has been processed to make features more visible. The surface contrast is degraded toward the edges of the disk due to the effects of Titan's smoggy atmosphere. The region seen here is similar to that seen during Cassini's first close flyby of Titan in October. The bright area toward the bottom of the image is the region dubbed "Xanadu." North is to the upper right.
The image was acquired at a distance of approximately 810.000 Km and the image scale is 4.8 Km per pixel". Ed ora una curiosità: guardate il bordo di Titano, in alto alla Vostra Dx, ad ore 2, c'è un rilievo rotondeggiante (una "cupola scura") perfettamente visibile. Non sembra un difetto della foto o un artifact derivante da vizio di processo e/o di compressione dell'immagine. E allora, secondo Voi, che cos'è?
