MARS RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER HIRISE IMAGES January 21, 2015
o Crater Slopes: The Power of a Repeat Image http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_037125_1315 Repeat coverage actually serves a special purpose, such as detecting seasonal changes. o Gullies in Liu Hsin Crater http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_038896_1255 By comparing to gullies that are just 20 kilometers away, we may be able to determine the factors that affect their size. o Southeast Rim of Hale Crater http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_038904_1430 The central peak of Hale Crater is a common target for recurring slope lineae, but an image of the rim might help us see if they occur elsewhere. o Triple-Crater in Elysium Planitia http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_039147_1940 This image shows a triple impact crater that probably formed when a binary--or even triple--asteroid struck the surface. All of the HiRISE images are archived here: http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ Information about the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter is online at http://www.nasa.gov/mro. The mission is managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology, for the NASA Science Mission Directorate, Washington, D.C. Lockheed Martin Space Systems, of Denver, is the prime contractor and built the spacecraft. HiRISE is operated by the University of Arizona. Ball Aerospace and Technologies Corp., of Boulder, Colo., built the HiRISE instrument. ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] https://pairlist3.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
