Farewell Triton...
|
Caption NASA originale:"Voyager 2 obtained this parting shot of Triton, Neptune's largest satellite, shortly after closest approach to the moon and passage through its shadow on the morning of Aug. 25, 1989. The distance to Triton was 90.000 Km and the phase angle was 155°, so that only a thin crescent of Triton's south polar region can be seen. Because of the high phase angle, and perhaps because of scattering sunlight in Triton's hazy atmosphere, few surface features are also easily discernible". Un piccolo commento: non sembra anche a Voi di intuire una sottile somiglianza fra Tritone e Titano?...
