PHOE-SOL001-M-Photocomposite-00.jpgThe Surface of Vastitas and the Sky above - Sol 1 (Photocomposite; RAW Color Data; credits: Dr M. Faccin)55 visiteQuesta immagine è una fotocomposizione in colori "RAW", ossìa interpretando le informazioni-colore contenute nel frame e SENZA applicazione di filtri e procedimento MULTISPECTRUM. Probabilmente, le prime immagini a colori "false" ed "approximate true" Made by NASA, saranno simili a questa (una conclusione ovvia anche perchè, come potete vedere bene Voi stessi, l'Immaginario Collettivo non viene disturbato da questo tipo di colorizzazione: il Pianeta Rosso, infatti ed anche nella Regione di Vastitas, appare ancora del suo tipico colorito arancio-mattone con sfumature ruggine e giallo chiaro: il colore, ribadiamo, dell'Immaginazione).
Ma Marte NON E' esattamente così, come ormai sappiamo bene tutti... MareKromium

PHOE-SOL001-lg_400-001.jpgVastitas Borealis - Sol 1 (Natural Colors + MULTISPECTRUM; credits: Lunexit)55 visiteCaption NASA:" This flat horizon stretches across the Red Planet as seen by the Phoenix Spacecraft after yesterday's landing on Mars. Touching down shortly after 7:30 pm Eastern Time, Phoenix made the first successful soft landing on Mars, using rockets to control its final speed, since the Viking landers in 1976. Launched in August of 2007, Phoenix has now made the northernmost landing and is intended to explore the Martian arctic's potentially ice-rich soil.
The lander has returned images and data initially indicating that it is in excellent shape after a nearly flawless descent. News updates will be available throughout the day".MareKromium

00-PhoenixLiftoff.jpgThe beginning...78 visiteCaption NASA:"Can Mars sustain life? To help answer this question, last week NASA launched the Phoenix Mission to Mars. In May 2008, Phoenix is expected to land in an unexplored North Polar Region of Mars that is rich in water-ice. Although Phoenix cannot move, it can deploy its cameras, robotic arm, and a small chemistry laboratory to inspect, dig, and chemically analyze its landing area. One hope is that Phoenix will be able to discern telling clues to the history of ice and water on Mars. Phoenix is also poised to explore the boundary between ice and soil in hopes of finding clues of a habitable zone there that could support microbial life.
Phoenix has a planned lifetime of 3 months on the Martian surface".MareKromium

True Colors; credits: NASA)56 visiteCaption NASA:"This mosaic of images from the Surface Stereo Imager camera on NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander shows a portion of the Spacecraft's Deck after deliveries of several Martian soil samples to instruments on the Deck.
In the center and right foreground is the Thermal and Evolved-Gas Analyzer. On the left is the Microscopy, Electrochemistry and Conductivity Analyzer".MareKromium
