Mare_Imbrium.jpgMare Imbrium64 visiteCaption NASA:"Dark, smooth Regions that cover the Moon's familiar face are called by Latin names for oceans and seas. The naming convention is historical, though it may seem a little ironic to denizens of the space age who recognize the Moon as a mostly dry and airless world, and the smooth, dark areas as lava-flooded impact basins. For example, this elegant lunar vista, a careful mosaic of telescopic images, looks across the expanse of the North-Western Mare Imbrium, or Sea of Rains, into the Sinus Iridum - the Bay of Rainbows. Ringed by the Jura Mountains (montes), the bay is about 250 Km across, bounded at the bottom of the rugged arc by Cape (promontorium) Laplace.
The Cape's sunlit face towers nearly 3000 mt above the bay's surface. At the top of the arc is Cape Heraclides, at times seen as a moon maiden".MareKromiumFeb 09, 2008

APOLLO_12_AS_12-57-8445_HR-a.jpgAS 12-57-8445 (a) - Soil surface disturbed by the LM descent engine exhaust (coloring: Lunexit)60 visiteQuesto frame, a parte l'evidente (e recente) "crack" del suolo, ci riserva un dettaglio davvero intrigante: guardate in alto, alla Vostra Dx, proprio a ridosso del margine superiore del frame.
Lo vedete?
Sembra un "pezzo di plastica" (o qualcosa di simile), il quale non mostra alcun segno di bruciatura (ma forse meglio sarebbe dire "consunzione": con ciò intendendosi il disturbo derivato all'oggetto - qualunque cosa fosse - dall'impatto con le microparticelle che costituivano il residuo dello scarico del reattore di discesa del LM) e si caratterizza per il suo intenso color "blu".
La NASA, ancora una volta purtroppo, non ha speso una parola su questo curioso (e non spiegabile, almeno da noi) particolare...MareKromiumGen 15, 2008
