Victoria crater from HiRise

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This image from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter shows "Victoria crater," an impact crater at Meridiani Planum, near the equator of Mars. The crater is approximately 800 meters (half a mile) in diameter. It has a distinctive scalloped shape to its rim, caused by erosion and downhill movement of crater wall material. Layered sedimentary rocks are exposed along the inner wall of the crater, and boulders that have fallen from the crater wall are visible on the crater floor. The floor of the crater is occupied by a striking field of sand dunes.

Since January 2004, the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity has been operating at Meridiani Planum. Five days before this image was taken, Opportunity arrived at the rim of Victoria crater, after a drive of more than 9 kilometers (over 5 miles). The rover can be seen in this image, at roughly the "ten o'clock" position along the rim of the crater.

This view is a portion of an image taken by the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera onboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft on Oct. 3, 2006. The complete image is centered at minus7.8 degrees latitude, 279.5 degrees East longitude. The range to the target site was 297 kilometers (185.6 miles). At this distance the image scale is 29.7 centimeters (12 inches) per pixel (with 1 x 1 binning) so objects about 89 centimeters (35 inches) across are resolved. The image shown here has been map-projected to 25 centimeters (10 inches) per pixel and north is up. The image was taken at a local Mars time of 3:30 PM and the scene is illuminated from the west with a solar incidence angle of 59.7 degrees, thus the sun was about 30.3 degrees above the horizon. At a solar longitude of 113.6 degrees, the season on Mars is northern summer. The full-resolution TIFF file (HiRISE number TRA_000873_1780) can be viewed or downloaded here PIA08813-hi-res.tif; the full-resolution JPEG can be viewed or downloaded here PIA08813-hi-res.jpg.

Description
Български: Това изображение от High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment на Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter на NASA показва кратера Victoria - ударен кратер в равнината Meridiani Planum близо до екватора на Mars. Кратерът е широк приблизително 800 m (половин миля) в диаметър. Има отличителна раковинна форма на ръба си, причинена от ерозиата и свлачищното движение на материала на кратерната стена. Наслоените седиментни скали са изложени по вътрешната стена на кратера, а на дъното на кратера се виждат големи скални блокове, паднали от кратерната стена. Дъното на кратера е покрито с поразително поле от пясъчни дюни.

От януари 2004 г. Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity действа в Meridiani Planum. Пет дни преди да е направена тази снимка, Opportunity пристига на ръба на кратера Виктория, след като е изминал повече от 9 km (над 5 мили). Роувърът може да се види на това изображение на позиция приблизително "10 часа" на ръба на кратера.

Този изглед е част от изображение, направено от камерата на High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) на борда на кораба-спътник Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter на 3 октомври 2006 г. Цялото изображение е центрирано на минус 7,8 градуса ширина, 279,5 градуса източна дължина. Разстоянието до целевия обект е 297 km (185,6 мили). При това разстояние мащабът на изображението е 29,7 cm (12 инча) на пиксел (с матрица 1 x 1 (т.е. пълна резолюция, т.е. без комбиниране (binning) на съседни пиксели)), така че се различават обекти с минимален размер около 89 cm (35 инча). Показаното тук изображение е наложено на равнина (за да се получи плоска карта) от 25 cm (10 инча) на пиксел и север е нагоре. Изображението е направено при местно време на Марс 15:30 ч. и изгледът се осветява от запад с ъгъл на падане на слънчевите лъчи от 59,7 градуса, като по този начин Слънцето е около 30,3 градуса над хоризонта. При слънчева дължина от 113,6 градуса сезонът на Марс е северно лято.
