This image was taken on the afternoon of the 116th Martian Day, or Sol, of the Mission (September 22, 2008).
The mast-mounted SSI, which provided the images used in the 360° panoramic view of Phoenix's Landing Site, is about 4" tall and 8" long".MareKromium

This image was taken on the afternoon of the 116th Martian Day, or Sol, of the Mission (September 22, 2008).
The mast-mounted SSI, which provided the images used in the 360 degree panoramic view of Phoenix's Landing Site, is about 4" tall and 8 inches long.
The two "eyes" of the SSI seen in this image can take photos to create 3-dimensional views of the landing site".MareKromium

The images show the increase in storm activity and potential for snowfall".MareKromium

PHOE-SOL116-PIA11224.jpgLights OFF - Sol 116 (approximate colors; credits: NASA)54 visiteCAption NASA:"This approximate color image is a view of NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander's Robotic Arm Camera (RAC) as seen by the Lander's Surface Stereo Imager (SSI). This image was taken on the afternoon of the 116th Martian day, or Sol, of the mission (such as September 22, 2008). The RAC is about 8 cm (3" - inches) tall.
The SSI took images of the RAC to test both the light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and cover function. Individual images were taken in three SSI filters that correspond to the red, green, and blue LEDs one at a time.
This yields proper coloring when imaging Phoenix's surrounding Martian Environment".MareKromium

PHOE-SOL151-lg_42523.jpgLast Frame from Phoenix: End of Transmissions... - Sol 151 (possible True Colors; credits: Lunexit)56 visiteNovember 10, 2008 -- NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander has ceased communications after operating for more than 5 months. As anticipated, seasonal decline in sunshine at the robot's Arctic Landing Site is not providing enough sunlight for the solar arrays to collect the power necessary to charge batteries that operate the lander's instruments.
Mission engineers last received a signal from the lander on Nov. 2. Phoenix, in addition to shorter daylight, has encountered a dustier sky, more clouds and colder temperatures as the Northern Mars Summer approaches Autumn. The mission exceeded its planned operational life of 3 months to conduct and return science data.
The Project Team will be listening carefully during the next few weeks to hear if Phoenix revives and phones home. However, engineers now believe that is unlikely because of the worsening weather conditions on Mars.
While the Spacecraft's work has ended, the analysis of data from the instruments is in its earliest stages.
Nell'immagine: il cielo cupo e sempre più scuro che sovrasta Phoenix, come ripreso intorno alle ore 15:30, M.L.T. e colorizzato da Lunexit in possibli Colori Veri (e nel rispetto della Regola Aurea che vuole il Cielo prossimo all'Orizzonte Marziano più chiaro e poi sempre più scuro a mano a mano che si alza lo sguardo).MareKromium

PHOE-SOL116-PIA11225.jpgLights ON - Sol 116 (extra-saturated colors; credits: NASA)54 visiteCaption NASA:"This image is a composite view of NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander's Robotic Arm Camera (RAC) with its lights on, as seen by the Lander's Surface Stereo Imager (SSI). This image combines images taken on the afternoon of Phoenix's 116th Martian day, or Sol (such as September 22, 2008). The RAC is about 8 cm (3" - inches) tall.
The SSI took images of the RAC to test both the light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and cover function. Individual images were taken in three SSI filters that correspond to the red, green, and blue LEDs one at a time. When combined, it appears that all three sets of LEDs are on at the same time.
This composite image is not true color. The streaks of color extending from the LEDs are an artifact from saturated exposure".MareKromium

PHOE-SOL038-AudioSignal-4.mp3Martian Winds... - Sol 38 (File Audio - Full Process.; credits: Dr M. Faccin)59 visiteSolo da "ascoltare": quasi un minuto e mezzo di "Vento" che, a tratti, sembra soffiare più intensamente e che poi, improvvisamente, si calma.
I mini-disturbi di fondo che sentite di quando in quando potrebbero essere sia del (autentico) "rumore" (noise), sia dei corpuscoli di polvere che vanno ad impattare il microfono.
Comunque sia: un audio - a nostro parere - da "pelle d'oca"...
Un GRANDISSIMO COMPLIMENTO al GRANDE Marco Faccin, da parte di TUTTI!MareKromium
