In this interesting (and full of chromatic contrasts) VIS image, taken by the NASA - Mars Odyssey Orbiter on December, 10th, 2003, and during its 8.815th orbit around the Red Planet, we can see part of the ancient and dusty Plains (---> also known as "Margin") which is located between the large Hale Crater (approx. 150 by 125 Km - such as about 93,15 by 77,625 miles) and the Martian Region known as Argyre Planitia. Latitude (centered): 37,2509° South This image (which is an Original Mars Odyssey Orbiter falsely colored and Map-Projected frame published on the NASA - Planetary Photojournal with the ID n. PIA 19737) has been additionally processed, magnified to aid the visibility of the details, contrast enhanced and sharpened, Gamma corrected and then re-colorized in Absolute Natural Colors (such as the colors that a normal human eye would actually perceive if someone were onboard the NASA - Mars Odyssey Orbiter and then looked down, towards the Surface of Mars), by using an original technique created - and, in time, dramatically improved - by the Lunar Explorer Italia Team. |
