Titan-PIA11508.jpg
Titan-PIA11508.jpgTitan in Eclipse54 visiteCaption NASA:"The Cassini spacecraft captured this image of a dimly lit Titan as Saturn's largest moon was eclipsed by the Planet.
This view looks up toward the South Pole of Titan which lies on the Terminator about a quarter of the way inward from the right of the visible disk. Lit terrain seen here is on the Saturn-facing side of Titan. In Saturn's shadow, the Southern Hemisphere of Titan is lit by two sources: sunlight scattered through the Planet's Rings and refracted sunlight passing through the edge of Saturn's Atmosphere.
Stars in this image are smeared by the long camera exposure time of 560" needed to capture the faint light on Titan. The image was taken in Visible Light with the Cassini Spacecraft wide-angle camera on May 7, 2009. The view was acquired at a distance of approx. 667.000 Km (about 414.000 miles) from Titan and at a Phase Angle of 58°.
Image scale is roughly 40 Km (about 25 miles) per pixel".

Titan-Surface-32.pngOn the surface of Titan73 visiteCaption ESA originale:"This raw image was returned yesterday, 14 January 2005, by ESA's Huygens probe during its successful descent to land on Titan. Sizes have been added to indicate scale of these features. Initially thought to be rocks or ice blocks, they are more pebble-sized. The two rock-like objects just below the middle of the image are about 15 cm (left) and 4 cm (centre) across respectively, at a distance of about 85 cm from Huygens. The surface is darker than originally expected, consisting of a mixture of water and hydrocarbon ice. There is also evidence of erosion at the base of these objects, indicating possible fluvial activity".5 commenti11/18/19 at 20:07MareKromium: No Anakin, non credo.

Titan-Huygens_Landing_Site-13-PIA07871.jpgHuygens Landing Site55 visiteCaption NASA originale:"This mosaic from the Descent Imager/Spectral Radiometer camera on the European Space Agency's Huygens probe combines 17 image triplets, projected from an altitude of 800 mt (approx. 2.625 feet).
The area covered is approximately 1,3 Km across (North at the top of the image). The smallest visible objects visible are less than 5 mt across and the dark channels are 30 to 40 meters (approx. 98 to 131 feet) wide.
The images were then stitched together using one of several projection algorithms (in this case 'gnomonic') to produce a full mosaic. The images used to construct this mosaic were taken on Jan. 14, 2005".

Commento: a nostro parere si tratta di immagini complesse (e piuttosto confuse), estremamente difficili da interpretare in maniera convincente (almeno sulla base di ricostruzioni come queste due che Vi abbiamo proposto).

Titan-Huygens_Landing_Site-14.jpg
Titan-Huygens_Landing_Site-14.jpgHuygens' landing site: best estimate64 visiteIn questa immagine il Centro Controllo Missione di Darmstadt ci fornisce la sua "migliore supposizione" (best estimate) sul punto in cui la Sonda Huygens potrebbe trovarsi adesso. Certo, la certezza assoluta sul punto di impatto non potremo averla mai, a meno che, un domani, non si vada direttamente su Titano a cercarla... Comunque sia, le ultime informazioni ricevute ed elaborate ci dicono che Huygens non è caduta nè dentro un mare od un lago di Titano, nè (propriamente) su una superficie rocciosa. La Sonda ESA, a quanto pare, si è adagiata su un'area fangosa, probabilmente in prossimità di un mare (di idrocarburi?).
Huygens, salvo l'occorrere di eventi imprevisti ed imprevedibili, trascorrerà i prossimi millenni esattamente nel punto dove è caduta, su un mondo affascinante - ancorchè gelido e lontano -, a circa - 180°C. La domanda è: andremo mai a riprenderla?!?...

Titan-MF-EB-PCF-LXTT-IPF.jpgLakeland (Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Elisabetta Bonora and Marco Faccin/LXTT/IPF)127 visiteUn esempio di come cambia la "visione" di un Mondo, quando si passa dai Colori Naturali (ossia i colori di un Corpo Celeste visti attraverso "Occhi Elettronici") ai Colori Naturali Assoluti (ossia i colori di un Corpo Celeste visti attraverso "Occhi Umani Medi"). Si noti, per Diritto ai Crediti e per Onestà Intellettuale, che la dizione "Colori Naturali Assoluti" è il prodotto di una tecnica di colorizzazione delle immagini totalmente basata sull'impiego di "Luci Virtuali", è un prodotto "Lunar Explorer Italia/Italian Planetary Foundation" e, per quanto attiene il suo "merito", poggia su assunzioni che, sebbene razionali e scientificamente accettabili (visione media, percezione dei colori media e percezione della luminosità media nell'occhio umano), nei fatti potrebbero rivelarsi errate. Questo solo per dire che noi NON pretendiamo di avere la Verità fra le mani, ma applichiamo un Approccio Razionale nella ricerca della Verità stessa.8 commentiMareKromium02/11/14 at 19:50MareKromium: ???
