SOL1083-2P222482431EFFASCGP2749R7M1.jpgImage-Artifacts and a (candidate) "Shooting Star"?!? - Sol 1083144 visiteSe ne sono dette tante (e scritte anche di più...), ma la Verità è ancora elusiva, più che mai: il dettaglio cerchiato in questo frame è un semplice image-artifact o si tratta di qualcosa di diverso?

Certo, "quelli che sanno" diranno subito che si tratta di un difetto dell'immagine e, forse, costoro avranno anche ragione...Ma la similitudine (o somiglianza, se Vi piace di più) fra questo "candidate image-artifact/shooting star" ed una "striscia nel cielo" che ha fatto e fa ancora discutere davvero tantissimo, anche alla NASA (era nel cielo di Marte sempre dalla parte di Spirit - che allora si stava avvicinando al Cratere Bonneville), c'è ed è evidente.

E' il segno visibile di un "bolide", come dissero alla NASA ipotizzando anche la natura "artificiale" del bolide stesso - forse la Sonda Viking Orbiter 2 che, entrata in crisi orbitale, abbandonò la sua quieta orbita per precipitare e quindi incenerirsi (come una stella cadente) negli strati superiori dell'atmosfera Marziana?
E' solo una sonda (una delle tante che ruotano attorno a Marte...) in semplice transito?
E' un O.V.N.I.?
O forse - ed infine - è un mero difetto del frame?...

Decidetelo Voi, naturalmente.
Noi una certa idea ce la siamo fatta ma - come si dice? - "non vogliamo condizionare i Lettori con le nostre speculazioni"...16 commenti02/28/20 at 17:31MareKromium: Chiara l'Anomalia o no?!?...

SOL1083-2P222482431EFFASCGP2749R7M1.jpgJust like a long time ago...190 visiteOsservate l'inset in b/n e quindi provate a rispondere a questa domanda: è mai possibile che, a distanza di tre anni dalla prima "Anomalìa", se ne sia verificata una seconda la quale è quasi del tutto identica a quella che la NASA stessa fece fatica a spiegare? Per rinfrescarVi la memoria, ecco che cosa dissero gli Amici di Pasadena della prima Stella Cadente Marziana:"Observing the sky with the green filter of it panoramic camera, the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit came across a surprise: a streak across the sky. The streak, seen in the middle of this mosaic of images taken by the navigation and panoramic cameras, was probably the brightest object in the sky at the time. Scientists theorize that the mystery line could be either a meteorite or one of seven out-of-commission spacecraft still orbiting Mars. Because the object appeared to move 4° of an arc in 15" it is probably not the Russian probes Mars 2, Mars 3, Mars 5 or Phobos 2; or the American probes Mariner 9 or Viking 1. That leaves Viking 2, which has a polar orbit that would fit with the North-South orientation of the streak. In addition, only Viking 1 and 2 were left in orbits that could produce motion as fast as that seen by Spirit. Said Mark Lemmon, a rover team member from Texas A&M University, Texas - "Is this the first image of a meteor on Mars, or an image of a spacecraft sent from another world during the dawn of our robotic space exploration program? We may never know, but we are still looking for clues".

Purtroppo, i "clues" (elementi probatori) di cui Mark Lemmon parlava non sono stati mai trovati. Almeno sino ad oggi...15 commentiMareKromium02/28/20 at 17:29MareKromium: E allora?!? Tredici anni dopo, che ne pensate?!? G...

Caption NASA:"NASA'S MER Spirit captured this Westward view from atop a low plateau where Sprit spent the closing months of 2007.
After several months near the base of the plateau called "Home Plate" in the inner basin of the Columbia Hills range inside Gusev Crater, Spirit climbed onto the Eastern edge of the plateau during the Rover's 1306th Martian day, or Sol, (Sept. 5, 2007).
It examined rocks and soils at several locations on the Southern half of Home Plate during September and October.
It was perched near the western edge of Home Plate when it used its panoramic camera (Pancam) to take the images used in this view on sols 1,366 through 1,369 (Nov. 6 through Nov. 6, 2007). With its daily solar-energy supply shrinking as Martian summer turned to fall, Spirit then drove to the northern edge of Home Plate for a favorable winter haven. The rover reached that northward-tilting site in December, in time for the fourth Earth-year anniversary of its landing on Mars. Spirit reached Mars on Jan. 4, 2004, Universal Time (Jan. 3, 2004, Pacific Standard Time). It landed at a site at about the center of the horizon in this image.

This panorama covers a scene spanning left to right from southwest to northeast. The western edge of Home Plate is in the foreground, generally lighter in tone than the more distant parts of the scene. A rock-dotted hill in the middle distance across the left third of the image is "Tsiolkovski Ridge," about 30 meters or 100 feet from the edge of Home Plate and about that same distance across. A bump on the horizon above the left edge of Tsiolkovski Ridge is "Grissom Hill," about 8 kilometers or 5 miles away. At right, the highest point of the horizon is "Husband Hill," to the north and about 800 meters or half a mile away.

This view combines separate images taken through Pancam filters centered on wavelengths of 753 nanometers, 535 nanometers and 432 nanometers to produce an approximately true-color panorama".11 commentiMareKromium02/26/20 at 17:29MareKromium: E' un GRANDE VALORE Anakin! E ne sono/siamo fi...
