B-PIA09944.jpgFar-Northern Destination for Phoenix Mars Lander56 visiteCaption NASA:"The planned Landing Site for NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander lies at a latitude on Mars equivalent to Northern Alaska on Earth. It is within the region designated "D" on this global image.
This is an orthographic projection with color-coded elevation contours and shaded relief based on data from the Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter on NASA's Mars Global Surveyor Orbiter. Total vertical relief is about 28 Km (about 17 miles) from the top of the highest volcano (red) to the Northern Lowlands (blue).
North Pole is where the longitude lines converge".MareKromium

PHOE-SOL003-PIA10720.jpgPhoenix Color Targets56 visiteCaption NASA:"These images of 3 Phoenix Color Targets were taken on Soles 1 and 2 by the Surface Stereo Imager (SSI) on board the Phoenix Lander. The bottom target was imaged in approximate color (SSI's red, green, and blue filters: 600, 530, and 480 nanometers), while the others were imaged with an infrared filter (750 nanometers).
All of them will be imaged many times over the mission to monitor the color calibration of the camera. The two at the top show grains 2 to 3 millimeters in size that were likely lifted to the Phoenix deck during landing. Each of the large color chips on each target contains a strong magnet to protect the interior material from Mars' Magnetic Dust".MareKromium

PHOE-SOL013-lg_3545.jpgHard to describe... - Sol 13 (Superdefinition; credits: Dr M. Faccin)56 visiteChe cosa rappresenta questo frame? Ed il colore che vediamo è "naturale" oppure è un prodotto dell'illuminazione artificiale a diodi usata da Phoenix?
Avete delle idee al riguardo? Scrivete!MareKromium

A-Phoenix-002-0.jpgOne, Two, Three...TESTING!56 visiteL'inequivocabile presenza di un microfono, accanto ad una delle Camere di cui è dotata la Sonda Phoenix, ci suggerisce ancora nuovi ed interessanti scenari: gli Amici di Pasadena non vogliono solo fotografie ed esperimenti di "cottura" (ammesso che si riesca a farli, prima o poi...): loro vogliono anche "suoni" da Marte!
Quali? Forse il vento... Forse anche altre cose.
Ottimo l'Occhio del Dr Faccin e notevole l'intuizione dello STAFF di Lunexit quando, alcuni mesi fa, abbiamo pensato che l'idea di un "Audio-File" da Marte potesse anche essere una buona idea.
E se lo è, allora Phoenix NON ha l'esclusiva del suono...Credeteci!MareKromium
