00-A-Mars_Global_Surveyor.jpgMars Global Surveyor61 visiteMars Global Surveyor was launched in 1996 on a mission designed to study Mars from orbit for two years. It accomplished many important discoveries during nine years in orbit. On Nov. 2, 2006, the spacecraft transmitted information that one of its arrays (---> pannelli) was not pivoting (--> ruotando) as commanded.
Loss of signal from the MGS Orbiter began on the following orbit.
Mars Global Surveyor has operated longer at Mars than any other spacecraft in history and for more than four times as long as the prime mission originally planned.
NASA has recently formed an internal review board to look more in-depth into why NASA's Mars Global Surveyor went silent in November 2006 and recommend any processes or procedures that could increase safety for other spacecraft.

South_Polar_Storm-PIA11982.jpgSouth Polar Dust Storm54 visiteCaption NASA:"This nearly global mosaic of observations made by the Mars Color Imager on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on April 2, 2009, shows billowing clouds of dust being lifted into the Atmosphere by a storm near the edge of the Seasonal Polar Cap of Southern Mars.
The season on Southern Mars is late Spring. Late Southern Spring and early Southern Summer are a peak time of the Martian year for major Dust Storms.
Atmospheric haze due to suspended dust from recent storm activity is evident elsewhere on the Planet, including the Skies over Mars rovers Opportunity (MER-B) and Spirit (MER-A).
Black areas in the mosaic are the result of data drops or high angle roll maneuvers by the Orbiter that limit the camera's view of the Planet.
Equally-spaced blurry areas that run from South-to-North (bottom-to-top) result from the high off-nadir viewing geometry, a product of the spacecraft's low-orbit.
Malin Space Science Systems, San Diego, provided and operates the Mars Color Imager. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. Lockheed Martin Space Systems, Denver, is the prime contractor for the project and built the Spacecraft".MareKromium

ZC-Jupiter from Mars-PIA04532_modest.jpgJupiter and 3 Galilean Moons from Mars78 visiteCi siamo chiesti tante volte, guardando Giove dalla Terra, come lo si vedrebbe da Marte. Ebbene, abbiamo trovato la risposta (grazie all'aiuto del Mars Global Surveyor Orbiter): in questo frame davvero eccezionale, Giove e 3 dei suoi 4 Satelliti Galileiani, così come li vedremmo da Marte! Un'immagine bellissima da guardare e su cui occorre riflettere molto. Perchè? Perchè conquistare lo Spazio, alle volte, vuol dire anche ampliare i confini dell'Immaginazione...
