Hi,
The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter sent back
its first images in a test of the Hirez camera,
including the first full-resolution image. The high
speed sweep system works and the images are
very sharp. The images can be found at:
<http://news.com.com/2300-11397_3-6053635-1.html>
The full rez image (page two of the article) has
98 inches to the pixel. When the orbit is lowered
and circularized, the resolution will be 11 inches
to the pixel. And, yes, Mars' surface looks different
when the pictures are sharper and more detailed.
Nothing like more detail...
