Titan-Regions-Shangri_La_Region-PIA08971.jpgShangri-la and other Equatorial Regions of Titan61 visiteCaption NASA:"This view of Titan's surface highlights NorthWestern Shangri-la - a large, Equatorial Dark Region revealed by radar observations to be covered in longitudinal dune fields. The bright, circular feature right of center is a potential impact crater - few of which have been spotted on Titan thus far.
North on Titan is up and rotated about 15° to the right. This view was created by combining multiple images taken using a combination of spectral filters sensitive to wavelengths of infrared light centered at 938 and 619 nanometers.
The images were taken with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on May 13, 2007 at a distance of approx. 125.000 Km (about 77.000 miles) from Titan. Image scale is roughly 1 Km (0,6 miles) per pixel. Due to scattering of light by Titan's hazy atmosphere, the sizes of surface features that can be resolved are a few times larger than the actual pixel scale".MareKromium

Tethys-N00085206.jpgTethys' surface, in the Saturn-shine (2 - natural colors - elab. Lunexit)61 visiteCaption NASA:"N00085206.jpg was taken on June 27, 2007 and received on Earth June 28, 2007. The camera was pointing toward Tethys that, at the time, was approx. 16.027 Km away. The image was taken using the CL1 and CL2 filters.
This image has not been validated or calibrated".MareKromium

OPP-SOL1225-1P236931182EFF85R9P2629L5M1.jpgDark Skies over Opportunity (2) - Sol 122561 visitePictures from the orbiter's Mars Color Imager show the storm is regional in extent, and includes several local areas of especially high dust activity. The storm has been moving Eastward and toward Mid-Latitudes, and is now also causing an increase in atmospheric dust at Spirit's location, on the opposite side of the Planet, at Gusev Crater.
Dust levels at Gusev remain much lower than at the Opportunity site, however.
Both rovers take daily measurements estimating the amount of dust in the atmosphere. The less dust the better, because it means more sunlight reaches the rover's solar panels, which power the vehicles. In the last week, Opportunity has broken its dust record, with the opacity level rising from 1.0 to 3.3. Solar array energy on Opportunity dropped from 765 watt-hours to 402 watt-hours over the same period of time.MareKromium

Uranus-Voyager2-PIA00369.jpgUranus Cloud Movement61 visiteTime-lapse Voyager 2 images of Uranus show the movement of 2 small, bright, streaky clouds - the first such features ever seen on the Planet. The clouds were detected in this series of orange-filtered images taken Jan. 14, 1986, over a 4.6-hour interval (from top to bottom). At the time, the spacecraft was about 12,9 MKM (about 8 MMs) from the Planet, whose pole of rotation is near the center of each disk. Uranus, which is tipped on its side with respect to the other planets, is rotating in a counterclockwise direction, as are the 2 clouds seen here as bright streaks.
(The occasional donut-shaped features that show up are shadows cast by dust in the camera optics. The processing necessary to bring out the faint features on the Planet also brings out these camera blemishes.) The larger of the 2 clouds is at a latitude of 33°; the smaller cloud, seen faintly in the 3 lower images, lies at 26° (a lower latitude and hence closer to the limb). Their counterclockwise periods of rotation are 16.2 and 16.9 hours, respectively. This difference implies that the lower-latitude feature is lagging behind the higher-latitude feature at a speed of almost 100 meters per second (220 mph). Latitudinal bands are also visible in these images. The faint bands, more numerous now than in previous Voyager images from longer range, are concentric with the pole of rotation -- that is, they circle the planet in lines of constant latitude.MareKromium
