ZZ-Mercury-Z1.jpgThe "Face" of Mercury (Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: NASA/JHU APL/CIW)192 visiteCaption NASA:"On March 17, 2011, the MESSENGER Spacecraft became the first to orbit Mercury, the Solar System's Innermost Planet. This is its first processed color image since entering Mercury orbit. Larger, denser, and with almost twice the Surface Gravity of Earth's moon, Mercury still looks moon-like at first glance.
But in this view its Terrain shows light blue and brown areas near Craters and long bright rays of material streaking the Surface. The prominent bright ray crater Debussy at the upper right is approx. 80 Km (49,68 miles) in diameter. Terrain toward the bottom of the historic image extends to Mercury's South Pole and includes a region not previously imaged from Space".MareKromium

Nota Lunexit: abbiamo operato una leggerissima saturazione del frame NASA-Original per evidenziare come una "fetta" (decisamente abbondante) del frame - "fetta" relativa allo Spazio circum-Mercuriano - SEMBRA essere stata, di fatto, rimossa (od oscurata). Sia detto con chiarezza: questo è quello che appare dalla semplice analisi del frame, una volta operata - ripetiamo - una leggerissima "schiaritura" (over-saturation) dell'immagine. Quali i motivi di questa operazione di make-up (se di make-up effettivamente si trattasse)? Non ne abbiamo idea. Ma le Vostre opinioni al riguardo saranno, come sempre, apprezzate.MareKromium

ZZ-Craters-Mercury-Secondary_Craters_Field-PIA14379.jpgSecondary Crater-Chains or Signs of multiple and simultaneous Cometary Impacts? (Enhanced Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)158 visiteCaption NASA:"This view captured by MESSENGER's wide angle camera (WAC) shows many Secondary Crater-Chains that originated from a Primary Impact Crater located outside this image, to the West. The Secondary Crater-Chains are formed as the Parent Crater-forming event launches Ejecta into the surrounding area. The chunks of Ejecta dig out their own craters which sometimes overlap to form a long valley-like depression. These features are striking though not uncommon on Mercury's battered Surface. Some other examples of Secondary Craters can be found at Abedin Crater".
