Saturn-PIA10413.jpgSwirling Clouds (MULTISPECTRUM; credits: Lunexit)62 visiteCaption NASA:"Sinuous clouds and hurricane-sized vortices mingle in Saturn's Northern Skies. This view looks toward a Region located at 70° North Latitude on Saturn.
Despite the level of detail visible here, the Region shown is wide enough to contain the planet Mars comfortably.
The image was taken with Cassini's CB1 spectral filter, which is sensitive to wavelengths of visible red light centered at 619 nanometers. The view was acquired with the spacecraft's narrow-angle camera on May 23, 2008 at a distance of approx. 1,2 MKM (about 775.000 miles) from Saturn.
Image scale is roughly 7 Km (about 4 miles) per pixel".MareKromium

20000411.jpgEros' North Polar Region (natural colors; credits: Lunexit)62 visiteFor much of the past five weeks, imaging activities on the NEAR Shoemaker Spacecraft have focused on the high Northern Latitudes of Eros.
The point at which the Sun is directly overhead - known as the "subsolar point" - has been steadily moving from Eros' Northern Regions toward the Equator as the Asteroid's seasons progress.
As this happens, the Northern Hemisphere is illuminated less and less, and previously dark Southern Latitudes progressively come into view.
In this image, taken March 19, 2000, from a range of 205 Km (approx. 127 miles), the asteroid's North Pole is in the upper right of the frame. The whole scene is 7,4 Km (4,6 miles) across.

Enceladus-N00118362.jpgThe Unbelievable Surface of Enceladus, from about 1500 Km! (the Monolith of Enceladus)62 visiteCaption NASA:"Caption NASA:"N00118365.jpg was taken on August 11, 2008 and received on Earth August 12, 2008. The camera was pointing toward ENCELADUS that, at the time, was approximately 1574 Km away.
The image was taken using the CL1 and CL2 filters and it has not been validated or calibrated".
Nota Lunexit: indicato dalla freccia, una probabile struttura colonnare - individuata grazie all'ombra straordinariamente lunga che proietta - che riteniamo simile (se non altro concettualmente) al Monolito di Phobos ed alle Cuspidi di Blair.MareKromium

M0132557824F4-pseudoparabola.pngThe "Pseudo-Dish" is gone...62 visiteUn nuovo "tassello", nella Saga delle Leggende di 433-Eros: la "Parabola".
In questo frame, che riprende il nostro "oggetto misterioso" da un angolo visuale opposto rispetto a quello solito (e cioè l'angolo visto e stravisto nelle immagini che popolano Internet), anche l'Osservatore più sbadato potrà vedere e verificare che il rilievo che, per alcuni Appassionati di Anomaly Hunting, sembrava e/o assomigliava e/o era un oggetto discoidale (una sorta di "Parabola per la Trasmissione e/o la Ricezione di Segnali", si è detto e scritto), è in realtà un boulder vagamente rettangolare, che accede ad un outcrop di modeste dimensioni.
Maggiori dettagli ed informazioni al riguardo seguiranno nell'articolo che chiuderà la "Trilogia di 433-Eros", di prossima pubblicazione su TruePlanets.
Per Vostra opportuna informazione, il "Rilievo Controverso" (chiamiamolo in questo modo "neutro", così non facciamo torto a nessuno) si trova alle seguenti coordinate: 14,46° Latitudine Nord e 256,77° Longitudine Est). MareKromium

Saturn-PIA10478.jpgSaturn and Mimas (natural colors; credits: NASA/JPL/Space Science Institute )62 visiteCaption NASA:"The Cassini Spacecraft looks beyond Saturn's limb toward the icy face of Mimas, the innermost of the Planet's major moons.
This view looks toward the sunlit side of the rings from about 3° below the Ring-Plane. Mimas is about 396 Km (approx. 246 miles) across.
Images taken using red, green and blue spectral filters were combined to create this natural color view. The images were acquired with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Sept. 4, 2007 at a distance of approx. 2,7 MKM (such as about 1,7 MMs) from Saturn and 2,8 MKM (such as about 1,8 MMs) from Mimas.
Image scale is roughly 16 Km (about 10 miles) per pixel on Saturn and approx. 17 Km (such as about 11 miles) per pixel on Mimas". MareKromium

Mimas___Prometheus-PIA10523.jpgThe "Ring-Masters" of Saturn62 visiteCaption NASA:"Two moons that have profound impacts on the Rings of Saturn, Mimas and Prometheus, are seen here with the F-Ring.
Mimas (approx, 396 Km, or about 246 miles across), the larger and much more distant of the moons, creates the Cassini Division: between the A and B-Rings.
Prometheus (approx. 86 Km, or about 53 miles across), although much smaller than Mimas, is half of a duo responsible for maintaining the narrow FRing".MareKromium

Caption NASA:"W00051725.jpg was taken on December 05, 2008 and received on Earth December 06, 2008. The camera was pointing toward TITAN that, at the time, was approx. 147.760 Km away.
The image was taken using the CB3 and CL2 filters".

Titan-Surface-38.gifOn the way down... - Sol 1 (GIF-Movie; credits: Dr G. Barca)62 visiteLe Condizioni di Illuminazione
Innanzitutto, ed a dispetto di quanto mostrato dalle immagini ESA-Huygens (e da tante altre “visioni artistiche” di Titano made by NASA, la nostra prima considerazione attiene le condizioni medie di illuminazione di questo mondo.
Le fotografie ESA (ottenute sia durante la discesa, sia dalla superficie di Titano), al pari delle interpretazioni artistiche NASA, ci danno l’impressione di un mondo, ancora una volta, alquanto luminoso…
