Opportunity Sol 5047, April 5, 2018

Between 23:08:05 UTC and 23:10:51 UTC Opportunity’s Pancam takes three images with narrow band filters in the three basic colors, from which it was possible to derive this extraordinary true color image of the Martian landscape.Milky sky and beautiful color variations of the landscape… Unprocessed RGB HD image (raw): https://image.ibb.co/fLAvWc/Oppy_Sol5047_01.jpg Original BN images: Red (735nm with 20nm bandwidth).23:08:05 UTC15:30:22 LTST https://mars.nasa.gov/mer/gallery/all/1/p/5047/1P576236658ESFD225P2350L2M1.HTML Green (535nm with 20nm… Read More »Opportunity Sol 5047, April 5, 2018

The distant shores of Mars

In this study we address a very interesting problem, namely the analysis of the distribution of coastlines of the ancient Martian oceans.In fact, some discrepancies from the average level have sparked debates for decades. In this research it is deduced that the Martian oceans were already present 4 billion years ago. the subsequent formation of the volcanic plateau of Tharsis would have perturbed the inclination… Read More »The distant shores of Mars

Interesting image that comes from the rover of NASA OpportunityIt is probably a volcanic rock where the holes indicate the path of gas escape. But I’m not sure. Still, it’s very interesting.
