South_Polar_Regions-South_Pole.jpgThe South Pole of Mars (Natural Colors; credits: NASA/MGS/MSSS)196 visiteCaption NASA:"During Spring, the Ice Cap - predominantly formed by layers of frozen carbon dioxide (dry ice) plus some water ice - begins to shrink as the ices change directly from solid to gas (cosiddetta "sublimazione"). Hazy clouds of ice crystals and fog extend across the bottom of the picture and a darker, more defrosted area, is visible at the upper right, near the Red Planet's night side".

South_Polar_Features-Isolated_Knob-PIA03977-PCF-LXTT.jpgSouth Polar Features: Layered Knob (Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)196 visiteCaption NASA originale:"This MGS-MOC image shows a small, relatively light-toned Knob of Layered Material and the erosional expression of the underlying layers, in the South Polar Region of Mars. When the image was acquired in April 2005, the surface was still covered with seasonal carbon dioxide frost. Dark spots and streaks mark locations where the frost had begun to change and sublime away".

Hills_with_Snow-MGS-PCF-LXTT.jpgWould you like to ski on Mars? (Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)191 visiteUna fantastica ripresa effettuata dalla Sonda MGS ci permette di vedere degli abbondanti depositi di neve (o di qualcosa che alla neve assomiglia davvero moltissimo) sui fianchi di alcune colline Marziane. Non c'è nulla di scientifico nel desiderio di dare un'occhiata da vicino a questi pendii innevati: Scienza è anche Curiosità e, come già dicemmo in passato, Bellezza. L'idea di passeggiare (o anche di sciare, perchè no?...) alle pendici di una montagna di Marte che giace, parzialmente ricoperta di neve, in uno spesso ed inviolabile silenzio, la troviamo splendidamente affascinante. Chissà se, un giorno, una simile passeggiata potrà essere davvero possibile e chissà chi sarà il primo Uomo (o la prima Donna) a farla...MareKromium
