Controversial_Features-The_Bridges_of_Meroe_Patera-MGS-1.jpgThe "White Bridges" of Meroe Patera (Original NASA/MGS/MSSS CTX b/w Frame)53 visiteCaption NASA originale:"This MGS-MOC image shows terrain South-West of Meroe Patera in Syrtis Major Planum, Mars. Wind streaks formed in the "lee" (the downwind side) of impact craters are common throughout the scene, including the small impact crater near the center of the image with light-toned ejecta radiating outward from its rim.
Near the South (Dx) of the image, 3 light-toned slope streaks, created by dry mass movements of dust, extend down the sloping side walls of two overlapping impact craters".

Location near: 5,3° North; 295,4° West

Controversial_Features-The_Bridges_of_Meroe_Patera-MGS-2.jpgThe "White Bridges" of Meroe Patera (Original NASA/MGS/MSSS b/w Frame - EDM)55 visiteLi abbiamo chiamati "ponti", ma ovviamente si tratta di qualcosa di molto diverso da una serie di "ponti ad arco". Per il Dr Feltri si potrebbe trattare di enormi bio-strutture; per il Dr Skipper si tratta di ciclopici manufatti in parte sepolti.
La nostra posizione al riguardo di questi "Bianchi Ponti" i quali si vedono anche in altre Regioni Marziane è interlocutoria: sappiamo che si tratta di caratterizzazioni superficiali talmente peculiari da potersi definire, in tutta tranquillità, cime Anomalìe di Superficie (Anomalìe che la NASA e l'ESA, ovviamente, non vedono e non commentano...); sappiamo che non sono dune e che la loro morfologia NON sposa la morfologia dell'ambiente a cui esse accedono (e dunque sono rilievi - tecnicamente - "alieni") e che, con ogni probabilità, si tratta di rilievi (effettivamente) di dimensioni enormi i quali non hanno riscontri similari nè sulla Terra, nè su nessun altro Corpo del Sistema Solare.

Questi, a nostro parere, sono i fatti.

Craters-Unnamed_Craters-Syrtis_Major.jpgUnnamed Craters in Syrtis Major Planum (Original NASA/MGS/MSSS b/w Frame)54 visiteCaption NASA originale:"This MGS-MOC image shows a portion of Syrtis Major Planum, dominated in this area by two Impact Craters of differing age. The large one is about 1,3 Km (approx. 0,8 miles) in diameter, the smaller is about 250 mt (~820 feet) across.
The smaller Unnamed Crater has a well-defined Ejecta Blanket and Rays emanate outward from its center. The larger Unnamed Crater does not exhibit these features. The larger one is older, and its Ejecta Blanket and Rays have been removed and degraded over time".

ESP_013951_1955_RED_abrowse-00.jpgDark Syrtis Major (CTX Frame - Natural Colors; credits: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)54 visiteOn 13 October 1659, Dutch Astronomer Christiaan Huygens turned one of his telescopes towards a bright orange spot in the sky and produced what Percival Lowell would later call “the first drawing of Mars worthy of the name ever made by man”.

Huygens included a "dark spot" in his drawing that is thought to represent Syrtis Major, a small sliver of which is visible in this HiRISE image.

Syrtis Major is a Shield Volcano and its dark color comes from the dark Basaltic Rock present in the area, visible because it lacks the Dust that paints the rest of the Planet its distinct, rusty orangish color. By tracking this "dark spot" in repeated observations, Huygens concluded that Mars rotated every 24 hours: a time not too far off from its true rotation period of approx. 24 hours and 39,58 minutes.

An Impact Crater (about 50 Km in diameter) into this rock exposes Layers along its Wall. These Layers may be made from several different geologic materials, such as Lava Flows, Debris from nearby impact craters, or deposits of Dust or Sand.
They may also represent different periods of deposition and erosion. The Layers are of varying thickness: some of the lighter, resistant units are less than 10 meters thick, while some of the darker layers might be over 100 meters thick.
