SOU-SOL015-marspath_yogi_rov.jpgYogi and Soujourner - Sol 1588 visiteCaption NASA originale:"The Soujourner Rover is taking its Alpha Proton X-Ray Spectrometer measurement.
It clearly shows the "two-toned" surface of this large rock.
The nature of this color difference is not known, however.
It might consist of wind-blown dust accumulated on the surface (the rock is leaning into the prevailing wind) or might be evidence of a break from a larger boulder as it was deposited in the ancient flood that scoured this area".

SOU-SOL006-81225_full.jpgRocky Panorama (2) - Sol 687 visiteOriginal caption:"An area of very rocky terrain at the Ares Vallis Landing Site, along with the Lander's deflated airbags, were imaged by the IMP before its deployment on Sol 2. The high-contrast objects at lower right are portions of the Lander and its deflated airbags".

SOU-SOL013.jpg"Cabbage Patch"... - Sol 1387 visiteDifficile dire quale sia stato il motivo che ha determinato il nome di questo minuscolo sito Marziano (Cabbage Patch -----> appezzamento coltivato a cavoli - nel senso della pianta...).
Certo che alla NASA sono davvero strani (come minimo) e, se giocano a fare i "misteriosi", dobbiamo ammettere che ci riescono in maniera davvero perfetta...

SOU-SOL015.jpgClouds... - Sol 1586 visiteThese clouds from Sol 15 have a new look: as water ice clouds cover the sky, the sky takes on a more bluish cast. This is because small particles (perhaps 1/10th the size of the Martian dust, or 1/1000th the thickness of a human hair) are bright in blue light, but almost invisible in red light. Thus, scientists expect that the ice particles in the clouds are very small. The clouds were imaged by the Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP).

SOU-SOL024-1.jpgSunset (1) - Sol 2486 visiteThis is a close-up of the Sunset on Sol 24. The red sky in the background and the blue around the Sun are approximately as they would appear to the human eye. The color of the Sun itself is not right - the Sun was over exposed in each of the 3 color images that were used to make this picture - and it might be near white or slightly bluish.

SOU-SOL035.jpgWind-tails - Sol 3585 visiteThis image was taken by the Soujourner Rover's Left Front Camera on Sol 32. The Pathfinder Lander is at right and is about 9 mt away. Wind tails of dust are clearly seen extending from the left side of many of the small rocks in the foreground. The large rocks on the horizon at left center are the next goal of Soujourner as it continues our exploration of Mars.
