Craters-Newton_Crater-03.jpgNewton Crater's Gullies (Original NASA/MGS/MSSS b/w Frame)167 visiteDa "NASA - Picture of the Day" del 26.6.2000:"...Inside a small crater that lies inside large Newton Crater on Mars, numerous narrow channels run from the top down to the crater floor. The above picture covers a region spanning about 3000 meters across. These and other gullies have been found on Mars in recent HR pictures taken by the orbiting Mars Global Surveyor robot spacecraft. Similar channels on Earth are formed by flowing water, but on Mars the temperature is normally too cold and the atmosphere too thin to sustain liquid water. Nevertheless, many scientists now hypothesize that liquid water did burst out here from underground Mars, eroded the gullies and pooled at the bottom as it froze and evaporated. If so, life-sustaining ice and water might exist even today below the Martian surface (...)". L'idea che ci sia acqua allo stato liquido sotto la superficie di Marte non è nuova, anzi: la NASA stessa lo ipotizzava 4 anni fa. Oggi, dopo mesi di esplorazione "in loco", tutto tace. Forse un ripensamento?9 commenti

KemblesCascade.jpgKemble's Cascade56 visite"...Non abbiamo più un passato da venerare e un futuro da aspettare, e dunque una tradizione in cui selezionare ciò che passa e salvare ciò che resta.
La guerra civile tra Passato e Futuro si è conclusa con la sconfitta d’ambedue e la vittoria inappellabile del Presente.

Il Culto del Presente nega il capolavoro, che ha bisogno di sguardi lungimiranti oltre il Muro del Tempo; il Presente non consegna l’Opera alla storia né tantomeno ai posteri, non elegge classici; consuma sul posto l’essere appena appare, fino a farlo sparire.
Senza la dimensione della Storia e la proiezione nel Futuro non è possibile partorire la grande opera.

...Il genio annega nel delirio narcisista dell’egocentrismo di massa, nell’invidia egualitaria, nel pari diritto al riconoscimento della genialità e nella congiura della mediocrità organizzata.
Nella mediocrazia universale, nell’uguaglianza metafisica delle anime o della loro assenza, il genio è un’anomalia arcaica, frutto iniquo della diseguaglianza e cicatrice deformante della disparità.

Il genio è pregiudicato e rinnegato...

PSP_002620_1410_RED_browse-00.jpgGullies on the edge of Newton Basin (context image)53 visiteThis image shows a portion of two impact craters on the floor of Newton Basin where a smaller crater formed within a earlier larger one.
The larger crater's North rim can be seen diagonally (South-West/North-East) across the image and the smaller crater's north rim is near the right-side of the image.

Along the interior wall of the larger crater, several gullies have incised into the wall of the Crater.

PSP_002620_1410_RED_browse-01.jpgGullies on the edge of Newton Basin (extra-detail mgnf)53 visiteThe gullies start near the top of the wall and can be traced across a break in slope partway down the wall (see here, 750 mt across). This break in slope occurs along the entire portion of the Crater wall in this image. The gullies appear shallower just above the break in slope, and deeper below the slope break.
This suggests that the fluid which eroded and carved out the wall materials forming the gullies, increased in velocity after the slope break, creating a deeper section of the gully.

ZZ-ZZ-ZZ-ZZ-20100727_LORRILooksBack_lg.jpgOn the Way to Pluto: Jupiter, Europa and Ganymede98 visiteCaption NASA:"New Horizons had an exciting Fly-By encounter with Jupiter in early 2007, and the Spacecraft has been rapidly moving away from the Giant Planet ever since.
The New Horizons team looked back at Jupiter during Annual Checkout (ACO) to test the Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI)'s ability to image targets close, in angle, to the Sun.

This image was taken on June 24, 2010, when New Horizons was 16,3 Astronomical Units (about 1,5 Billion Miles) from Jupiter, at a Spacecraft-Sun-Planet angle of only 17°. Looking like Earth's moon at a quarter phase, Jupiter is clearly resolved, with an apparent diameter of nearly 12 LORRI pixels. LORRI also picks up the moons Ganymede and Europa, even though the exposure time was only 9 milliseconds and these Galilean satellites are extremely faint in comparison to Jupiter".

This is the first LORRI image of M 7 taken during Annual Checkout (ACO); the 100-millisecond manual exposure was taken on June 25, 2010. A preliminary comparison of this image to a 2008 LORRI picture of M7 indicated no degradation or change in LORRI's performance".MareKromium
