as16-114-18388.jpgAS 16-114-18388 - Man on the Moon... (2)56 visiteCaption NASA:"122:46:09 MT - This picture shows John Young at the ALSEP site.
John is working with a sample bag, using the top of the camera, which is Charlie Duke's, as a work surface.
The "LMP" decal can be seen on the top of the camera just back of the lens".MareKromium

as16-114-18423.jpgAS 16-114-18423 - Duke near Plum Crater56 visiteCaption NASA:"Rightward of 18422, showing Charlie Duke as he watched John take the pan at about 124:03:00 MT. Earlier, at about 124:02:29 MT, Charlie planted the scoop to provide scale in pictures he then took of lineations on the surface".

as16-114-18422.jpgAS 16-114-18422 - The interior of Plum Crater (2)56 visiteCaption NASA:"124:02:22 MT - Rightward of 18421.
This frame is part of a pan John Young took near the partially-buried boulder on the far rim of Plum Crater from the Rover. It shows most of Plum Crater and part of the boulder is at the lower left.
Note the bench on the East Wall of Plum Crater, which may represent the base of the regolith".MareKromium

Saturn-PIA08360.jpgFrom North to South...56 visiteCaption NASA:"Dark and sharply defined ring shadows appear to constrict the flow of color from Saturn's warmly hued South to the bluish Northern Latitudes.
Scientists studying Saturn are not yet sure about the precise cause of the color change from North to South. NASA Voyager spacecraft flybys witnessed a more evenly painted Planet in the early '80s, when Saturn was closer to Equinox. However, the bluish color was readily apparent upon Cassini's approach to the Planet in late 2003, when Saturn was just coming out of its Northern Hemisphere Winter. Scientists have speculated that the color is due to seasonal effects on the atmosphere.
Aside from the color differences, the cloud morphology is quite different in the Polar Regions compared to the mid-latitudes. Bright, isolated clouds dot the high latitudes, while Saturn's middle is characterized by flowing cloud bands and the occasional bright or dark vortex.
This view looks toward the lit side of the rings from about half a degree below the Ring-Plane.
Images taken using red, green and blue spectral filters were combined to create this natural-color view. The images were obtained with the Cassini spacecraft wide-angle camera on Feb. 4, 2007, at a distance of approx. 1,2 MKM (about 700.000 miles) from Saturn. Image scale is roughly 67 Km (about 42 miles) per pixel". MareKromium

as12-51-7466.jpgAS 12-51-7466 - Flying over Theophilus Crater (1)56 visiteNotes: Theophilus is a relatively young crater similar in size but slightly older than Copernicus. It lies on the eastern edge of the Kant Plateau, an elevated area in the Central Highlands along the North-Western margin of Mare Nectaris.
Like Copernicus and Aristarchus, Theophilus has ruggedly terraced walls and a complex central peak protruding through a level floor.
Smooth-surfaced material is present in "pools" at various levels on the terraces, on parts of the crater floor, and on the ejecta that blanket the North side of the Crater. As one alternative, the pools may have been emplaced as fluid lava.
