Craters-Unnamed_Crater_in_Terra_Cimmeria-MGS-PCF-LXTT.jpgUnnamed Impact Crater wth Gullies (Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)201 visiteCaption NASA originale:"This MGS-MOC image shows a 1,5 mt (~5 feet) per pixel view of an Unnamed Crater in the Terra Cimmeria Region of Mars. Several Gullies extend from near the top of the Crater Rim, downslope toward the Floor of the Crater. Liquid water might have played a role in their genesis".
Location near: 37,7° South Lat. and 191,6° West Long.

Location near: 21,9° South Lat. and 338,6° West Long.
Image width: ~3 Km (~1,9 mi)

Craters-Unnamed_Crater_in_Terra_Tyrrhena-01.jpgUnnamed Crater and Dunes in Terra Tyrrhena (Original NASA/MGS/MSSS b/w Frame)58 visiteCaption originale:"This MGS-MOC image shows a portion of a Field of Dark Sand Dunes superposed on the light-toned Floor of an Unnamed Crater located in Eastern Tyrrhena Terra. The orientation of the Dunes — with the steep faces toward the South (right) — suggests that winds generally blew from North to South at the time the dunes were formed".
Location near: 14,6° South Lat and 262,3° West Long.
Image width: ~3 Km (~1,9 mi)
Illumination from: lower left
Season: Southern Summer
Nota: la caption originale, come spesso sta accadendo, esprimendosi sulla direzione dei venti che avrebbero scolpito le dune della Terra Tirrena è - scusateci - così stupida che meriterebbe la censura (faremmo solo un favore alla NASA). Tuttavia, dato che il servizio che noi cerchiamo di rendere vuole coprire anche alcuni lati "curiosi" (sic!) della Divulgazione Scientifica, abbiamo pensato di lasciare il commentino ufficiale integro, così che qualsiasi Lettore, leggendolo, possa rendersi conto di che cosa significa "parlare (rectius: scrivere) quando non si ha proprio nulla da dire (scrivere)".

Large, light-toned, windblown Ripples reside on the Floors of many of the depressions in the scene, including a long, linear, Trough".

Craters-Unnamed_Crater_with_Boulder_Tracks-MGS-PIA06450.jpgBoulder Tracks (Original NASA/MGS/MSSS b/w Frame)271 visiteAbbiamo visto, in altri Siti dedicati alle Anomalie Spaziali, delle immagini simili a questa (ma riferite alla Luna) in cui tracce del tutto analoghe a quelle che Vi proponiamo in questo MGS frame venivano ipoteticamente attribuite a manufatti in movimento all'interno di crateri od in prossimità di pendii. Certo, in mancanza di elementi di prova inoppugnabili, tutto è possibile ed ipotizzabile, ma noi riteniamo che questo tipo di traccia sia da attribuirsi, in difetto di prova contraria, a dei macigni che rotolano a seguito di leggeri sismi o vibrazioni del suolo causate da impatti meteorici occorsi nelle vicinanze. Nemmeno da escludere è la possibilità che si tratti di fenomeni di cosiddetto "Gravity Wasting".

Craters-Unnamed_Crater_with_Dark_Streaks-2003_08.jpgDark Slope Streaks on the edge of an Unnamed Crater (Saturated Natural Colors; credits: NASA/MGS/MSSS)97 visiteCaption NASA originale:"This June 2003 MGS-MOC image shows a crater rim mantled with fine dust near 7.6°N, 171.8°W. Occasional avalanches of dust have created dark streaks that are tapered at their source and broaden downslope.
A suite of particularly large streaks are seen in the lower right quarter of the picture. The MOC narrow angle camera does not take color images; this full-resolution (1,5 m/pixel; 5 ft/pixel) picture has been "colorized" using data from a previous color image of Mars.
Sunlight illuminates this scene from the lower left".
