Craters-Russel_Crater-IR-00.jpgThe "Warm Dunes" of Russell Crater (IR - False Colors)56 visiteCaption NASA:"This InfraRed image shows the main dune field on the floor of Russell Crater. The dunes are bright in this daytime image because they are warm. The sand material is dark".
Coord.: 54,6° South Lat. and 13,0° East Longitude
Nota: nelle immagini IR i rilievi più "luminosi" sono anche quelli "più caldi". Ok. Ma la NASA non si ferma a questo rilievo tecnico e ci dice pure, se leggete con attenzione, che mentre il "dune-field" è luminoso, dunque caldo, i rilievi costituiti da materiali "sabbiosi" (sand material) sono scuri, dunque freddi.
Ma, scusate...seguendo questa logica (dune bright---> calde; sabbia dark---> fredda), la domanda sorge spontanea: ma di che cosa sono "fatte" le dune?!? O meglio: la "sabbia" che forma le dune (e che si scalda al Sole) in che cosa è diversa rispetto alla sabbia che NON forma le dune - e che rimane fredda - ma che giace comunque al suolo e sul fondo del Cratere Russel? O abbiamo capito male?!? Voi che ne pensate?MareKromium
