Deuteronilus_Mensae_Region-PCF-LXTT.jpgDeuteronilus Mensae (Enhanced Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunar Explorer Italia70 visiteThis image shows the Deuteronilus Mensae Region on Mars, an area primarily characterized by (peri)glacial features.
It was taken on 14 March 2005 (orbit number 1483) by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) onboard ESA's Mars Express with a ground resolution of approx. 29 mt per pixel.
The area is located on the Northern edge of Arabia Terra and borders the Southern High- and Northern Lowlands, at approx. 39° North Lat. and 23° East Long. MareKromium

Phobos-400-455-20091201.jpgBig Brother and Little Brother70 visitePhobos and Deimos RAW (left panel) and processed images (right panel).
In a first, ESAs Mars Express Orbiter imaged the Martian Moons Phobos and Deimos together on November, 5th, 2009.
Apart from their wow factor, these unique images will help the HRSC team validate and refine existing orbit models of the two moons.
The images were acquired with the Super Resolution Channel (SRC) of the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC). The camera took 130 images of the moons on November 5th at 09:14 CET in a span of 1,5 minutes at intervals of 1", speeding up to 0,5" intervals toward the end. The image resolution is 110 m/pixel for Phobos and 240 m/pixel for Deimos Deimos was more than twice as far from the camera.
The Super Resolution Channel of the HRSC uses an additional lens, which has a very narrow field of view of just 0,5, providing four times the magnification than otherwise providing four times the resolution of the HRSC colour stereo channel.
Phobos, the larger of the two moons, orbits closer to the Red Planet, circling it every 7 hours and 39 minutes. It travels faster relative to Mars than the Moon relative to Earth.
Phobos was about 11.800 Km from Mars Express when the images were taken. Deimos, instead, was about 26.200 Km away.MareKromium

Craters-Lauth_Crater_in_Vastitas_Borealis_Region-Frozen_Lake-W-212-010705-1343-6-3d-01-01.jpgThe misterious "Frozen Lake" of Vastitas Borealis (2 - False Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Lunar Explorer Italia)69 visiteNoi non sappiamo se i riflessi color verde ed azzurro che cogliamo nelle immagini telescopiche di Marte (sia ottenute da Terra, sia dallo Spazio - via HST ad esempio) sano il prodotto di mere aberrazioni cromatiche o se essi possano effettivamente costituire l'evidenza tangibile, rispettivamente, di forme di vegetazione indigena e/o di acque correnti superficiali.
Quello che sappiamo che non possiamo - semplicemente - ignorare questi dati in sede di interpretazione "cromatica" delle immagini possedute, qualunque ne sia la fonte.
Questa "visione" (di fantasia, ma sino ad un certo punto...) del Lago Ghiacciato di Vastitas si riferisce alla tarda Primavera Polare Marziana.MareKromium
