PHOE-SOL054-MidnightSun-PIA10976.jpgMidnight Sun on Mars - Sol 5455 visiteCaption NASA:"This panorama mosaic of images was taken by the Surface Stereo Imager on board NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander. This mosaic documents the Midnight Sun during several days of the mission.
The foreground and sky images were taken on Sol 54, or the 54th Martian Day of the mission (July 20, 2008). The solar images were taken between 22:00 and 02:00 M.L.T., during the nights of Soles 46 to 56. During this period of 11 Soles, the Sun's path got slightly lower over the Northern Horizon, causing the lack of smoothness to the curve. This pan captures the polar nature of the Phoenix Mission in its similarity to time lapse pictures taken above the Arctic Circle on Earth". MareKromium

Barca)54 visiteI cambiamenti (evidenti) che si notano all'interno della piccola trincea denominata "Biancaneve", a nostro parere, non sono spiegabili nè facendo ricorso al verificarsi di fenomeni di sublimazione, nè supponendo l'occorrenza di fenomeni di semplice liquefazione. E allora sarà forse è il vento a determinare queste modifiche del suolo?!?
Forse...MareKromium

PHOE-SOL058-PIA11204.jpgUnbelievable!!!64 visiteEnnesima SCOPIAZZATURA NASA di un frame processato dal nostro Dr Faccin, addirittura 2 mesi e mezzo fa!!!
Che dire? Non hanno davvero ritegno...
Caption NASA:"This image from NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander's Optical Microscope shows a strongly magnetic surface which has scavenged particles from within the microscope enclosure before a sample delivery from the lander's Robotic Arm. The particles correspond to the larger grains seen in fine orange material that makes up most of the soil at the Phoenix site. They vary in color, but are of similar size, about one-tenth of a millimeter.
As the microscope's sample wheel moved during operation, these particles also shifted, clearing a thin layer of the finer orange particles that have also been collected. Together with the previous image, this shows that the larger grains are much more magnetic than the fine orange particles with a much larger volume of the grains being collected by the magnet. The image is 2 milimeters across.
It is speculated that the orange material particles are a weathering product from the larger grains, with the weathering process both causing a color change and a loss of magnetism".
Nota Lunexit: l'Imperial College di Londra, dopo aver esaminato (usando le nostre Funzioni Statistiche) la lista delle Università che si collegano con Lunar Explorer Italia, risulta essere un "aficionado" della nostra Fondazione!
Ok, è un onore. Ma dire "Grazie" al Dr Faccin ed a Lunexit sarebbe stato MOLTO EDUCATO ed APPREZZATO.
Che altro aggiungere? Anche gli Inglesi, a quanto pare, hanno imparato che "rubacchiare" è più facile che creare...MareKromium
