SOL0082-51178624534_171cb9055b_o.jpgScience, Questions and Doubts - Sol 82162 visite"Le pale gemelle controrotanti dell’elicottero sono costruite per «affondare i denti nella rarefatta atmosfera marziana a quasi 3000 giri/min, ossia circa 10 volte la velocità di un elicottero sulla Terra», ha spiegato il comunicato stampa.
È dotato di «celle solari per caricare le sue batterie agli ioni di litio e di un meccanismo riscaldante per tenerlo al caldo durante le fredde notti marziane».
Trionfo della Scienza e della NASA? Certo. Certo...MareKromium

SOL614-3.jpgSomething's WRONG with this picture! - Sol 614 (Saturated Natural Colors + MULTISPECTRUM; credits for the additioonal process. and color.: Dr Gianluigi Barca - Lunexit Team) 54 visiteUna "piccola" provocazione: non è la prima volta che ci imbattiamo in immagini come questa (diciamo che sono un "pò (troppo) piatte" per essere...credibili) e la nostra sensazione/giustificazione, in passato, si riferiva ad un possibile effetto di schiacciamento derivante dall'azione congiunta di fattori quali il Filtro/Colore usato, la luce esistente al momento della ripresa, l'O.A. e così via.
Poi abbiamo iniziato ad operare le colorizzazioni (o "cromatizzazioni", come dice il bravissimo Dr Faccin) e ci siamo subito accorti che ALCUNI frames NON SONO CROMATIZZABILI. O meglio, lo sono: ma il risultato che si ottiene, pur usando un processing ormai consolidato, è veramente pessimo.
L'immagine si sgrana, perde di profondità (ammesso che l'avesse nella sua versione in b/n), evidenzia segni di piallature che nel b/n non emergevano e/o non erano visibili. Ed in ogni caso, la cromatizzazione finale rende il frame del tutto simile ad una sorta di "disegno digitale", piuttosto che ad una fotografia "passata a colori"...
Questo frame è un esempio (nemmeno uno dei più eclatanti...) di immagine "piallata", "sgranata", "senza profondità" e, in una sola parola (una parola brutta ma... quando ci vuole, ci vuole!), un'immagine "falsa".
Una specie di "disegno", appunto.
Prossimamente proveremo a pubblicare una nostra ipotesi sulla natura di questo fenomeno. Nel frattempo, se volete, potete provare a "scoprire" altri frames "falsi" (almeno in apparenza) come questo. Il lavoro, credeteci, NON Vi mancherà...MareKromium

ZZ-Mercury-Limb-Flare-Fake-PIA16909-PCF-LXTT-IPF-0.jpgThis is NOT a "Game"!90 visiteThis beautiful and, as you can see, deeply suggestive image has been recently taken by the NASA - MESSENGER Spacecraft, while it was imaging the Limb of the Planet Mercury. What you see here could reasonably be an "Outgassing" - like the controversial ones which, sometimes, have been seen occurring on our Moon (actually, the so-called "Outgassings" are events in which Volatile-rich Materials are vented from deep inside the Lunar Interior, up to the Lunar Surface - specifically, we can think about Elements like Radon, Nitrogen, Carbon Monoxide, and/or Carbon Dioxide - and which might be the visible result of Low Level (---> Residual) Lunar Volcanic and/or Tectonic Activities). These Outgassing Phenomena, as you should know, are commonly put in the Cathegory of the so-called "Transient Lunar Phenomena" (or TLP, for short).-
On the other hand, this "Flare" might also be the result of an extremely unlikely (but yet possible) Residual Active Volcanic Activity (so, in this scenario, we would be looking at an actual Volcanic Plume) which happened on the innermost Planet of the Solar System: a Planet that has always been considered by the Planetary Scientists - as well as by the General Scientific Community -, like a (Geologically speaking) "Completely Dead Celestial Body".
It is also possible (even though we, as IPF, believe that this very last hypothesis is the least likely of the three) that the "Flare-like Light" seen here, on the Mercurian Limb, could be the evidence of an Impact (i.e.: a Meteor Strike) that has just occurred. However, if this hypothesis were true, we could also assume, just by looking at the shapes of both the Main Plume and the Upper Cloud which can be seen right on top of the Plume itself, that the Celestial Object that hit the Surface of Mercury should/must have followed a nearly (---> almost perfectly) Vertical Impact Trajectory (and this is another rather unlikely - better yet: extremely rare - circumstance).
This picture (which is an Original NASA - MESSENGER Spacecraft b/w frame published on the NASA - Planetary Photojournal with the ID n. PIA 16909 - but now, as we wrote herebefore, removed) has been additionally processed and then colorized in Absolute Natural Colors (such as the colors that a human eye would actually perceive if someone were onboard the NASA - MESSENGER Spacecraft and then looked down, towards the Surface of Mercury), by using an original technique created - and, in time, dramatically improved - by the Lunar Explorer Italia Team. Different colors, as well as different shades of the same color, mean, among other things, the existence of different Elements (Minerals) present on the Surface of Mercury, each having a different Albedo (---> Reflectivity) and Chemical Composition.
Important Note for the Readers: the People working at NASA for The MESSENGER Team implied that this picture was (once again, after "Caduceus") some sort of "practical joke", created to celebrate the Worldwide famous "April Fools' Day". Well, we, as IPF, believe that if this picture, as it seems, is actually a "joke" (---> a fake, in this case), it really is a VERY, VERY poor and stupid one. Please, forgive us for being so direct, but even though some People may think that this idea of making a practical joke out of a MESSENGER b/w frame was "funny" and "educational" (and, in a pretty distorted way, it probably was so), we honestly believe that this silly "stunt" only proves, in a LOUD and CLEAR WAY, how easily, once you have the right REPUTATION, skills and means, the original RAW image-data received from Space can be corrupted/tampered with, either by adding or by removing Features.
As you can also easily understand, the implications arising out of this "stunt" are, actually, countless and, in a way (like we already underlined in the past), quite disturbing...
