m10_aom_21.jpgThe "burning" Caloris Basin (HR)68 visiteThe largest basin on Mercury (about 1300 Km - or 800 miles across) was named Caloris (Latin for "heat") because it is one of the two areas on the Planet that face the Sun at perihelion.
The Image Processing Lab at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory produced this photomosaic using computer software and techniques developed for use in processing planetary data.
The Mariner 10 spacecraft imaged this Region during its initial flyby of the Planet.

N-49-PIA09071.jpgSupernova Remnant N 4968 visite"...I would like to inform all the intrepid Muslims in the World that the Author of the book entitled "The Satanic Verses", which has been compiled, printed and published in opposition to Islam, the Prophet and the Qur'an, as well as those publishers who were aware of its contents, have been declared madhur el dam (those whose blood must be shed). I call on all zealous Muslim to execute them quickly, wherever they find them, so that no-one will dare to insult Islam again. Whoever is killed in this path will be regarded as a martyr..."

PSP_001474_2520_RED-new_lake-01.jpgThe Northern Lakes: Lake "Lunexit" (extra-detail mgnf)68 visiteEd una volta operato un extra-detail mgnf a noi pare che non possano esserci più dubbi di sorta: sul fondo di questo Cratere c'è un deposito di ghiaccio (l'albedo del ghiaccio d'acqua non tradisce!) e quindi, come già fatto in passato, possiamo parlare tranquillamente di Frozen Lake.MareKromium

PSP_003370_2140_RED_browse.jpgPit Craters (or Collapse Pits) in Cyane Fossae68 visiteThis image shows several pits along the floor of Cyane Fossae, a set of fissures between the giant volcanoes of Olympus Mons and Alba Patera (North-East of Olympus Mons).
The fissures probably formed when the surface of the Planet was actively being stretched from the stresses of volcanic activity, causing the surface to split open along faults. There is no material piled up around the edges of the pits, as would be expected if these were impact craters or volcanic vents. Instead, parts of the Fossae floor likely collapsed into the void underlying Cyane Fossae, forming the pits.
This type of process, in which the crust is split open, has occurred here on Earth, and it created the geologic "basin and range" province of the western United States.
The walls of the pits are likely covered in dust and the few dark streaks along the walls are likely formed by avalanches of dust. Striations along the slope may be produced by the passage of DDs.
Dust also appears on the floors of the collapse pits and covered most of the plains nearby. Despite the presence of this layer of dust, bouldery outcrops occur in places along the wall, suggesting that the underlying material is hard and rocky.
