Aeolian_Features-DD_and_Dust_Storms-2003_06_02-00.jpgDust Storms and Dust Devils between Syria Planum and Claritas Fossae (Enhanced Natural Colors; credits: NASA/MGS/MSSS)99 visiteCaption NASA originale:"This color-enhanced composite of Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) wide angle images shows dust-raising events (small dust "storms" and a few very large dust devils) in the Syria/Claritas Region around 2 p.m. MLT on May 21, 2003. The Region is southwest of the Labyrinthus Noctis, near 14°S, 108°W. Sunlight illuminates the scene from the left; winds were blowing from the west/southwest when the picture was taken. This composite was constructed from a full-resolution (240 meters per pixel) red wide angle image and a much lower resolution (7,5 Km per pixel) blue wide angle image acquired at the same time".

Volcanoes-Pavonis_Mons.jpgPavonis Mons (Darkened Natural Colors; credits: NASA/MGS/MSSS)89 visiteCaption NASA originale:"This Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) wide angle color composite image, obtained in December 2003, shows the middle of the three Tharsis Montes, Pavonis Mons. This is a broad shield volcano -similar to the volcanoes of Hawaii - located on the Martian equator at 113°W. The volcano summit is near 14 Km (~8.7 mi) above the martian datum (0 elevation); the central caldera (crater near center of image) is about 45 Km (~28 mi.) across and about 4.5 Km (~2.8 mi.) deep. Sunlight illuminates the scene from the lower left".

Craters-Gusev_Crater-R1300473_474.jpgGusev Crater Landscape from MGS (Extremely Enhanced Natural Colors; credits:NASA/JPL-MSSS)147 visiteSi tratta di un'immagine a colori ad HD semplicemente fantastica, ottenuta dalla Sonda Mars Global Surveyor e relativa (in parte) all'area di lavoro di Spirit. Abbiamo scelto di mostrarVi questo frame per almeno 3 buoni motivi: 1) perchè si tratta di un frame bellissimo; 2) perchè ci fa vedere bene i "colori di Marte" (che, dall'alto, sembrano diversi da quanto ci mostrano le Sonde che stazionano sulla superficie e 3) perchè ci aiuta a cogliere, usando i nostri occhi, la sensazione che proveremmo se ci trovassimo fisicamente su una nave spaziale, in orbita intorno a Marte.

as10-28-3990~0.JPGAS 10-28-3990 - Extra Lunar Object161 visiteUn profondo ringraziamento va al Lunar and Planetary Institute (LPI) il quale, a distanza di molto tempo dalla prima richiesta operata da Lunar Explorer Italia (tramite il Dr Paolo C. Fienga), ha rintracciato negli Archivi NASA-Apollo questo rarissimo e controverso frame Apollo 10 e ce lo ha messo a disposizione nella sua versione originale e non compressa.
I commenti sono questi: "...we do not know what this object may represent, nor we have sources to contact in this regard. There really isn't anyone you can talk to about what an image shows. The people who analyzed the images originally have long since moved on to other jobs, retired, or died. All we have are the documents they left behind - some of which are online (...) However, as you correctly assumed, the artifact is not part of the US Spacecraft, but it was something caught in Lunar Orbit at the time the picture was taken. Its origin is, and most likely shall remain, unknown (...).
