Approaching Pluto (RAW and Annotated Frame)
|
Da "NASA - Astronomy Picture of the Day" dell'11 Luglio 2015.
"Pluto is coming into focus. As the robotic New Horizons Spacecraft bears down on this unexplored world of the distant Solar System, new Features on its Surface are becoming evident.
In the displayed image, an unusual polygonal structure roughly 200 Km wide is visible on the left (Sx) while, just below it, a relatively complex Terrain runs diagonally across the "Dwarf Planet".
New Horizon's images and data on these structures will likely be studied for years to come in an effort to better understand the Geologic History of Pluto and our Solar System. After suffering a troublesome glitch last week, New Horizons will make its historic Fly-By of Pluto and its moons on Tuesday".
Tutto passato. Tutto ok. Ed il Viaggio continua.....
