In this VIS image, taken by the NASA - Mars Odyssey Orbiter on April, 6th, 2015, and during its 59.044th orbit around the Red Planet, we can see a small portion of Gale Crater (with part of its extremely complex Rim): the "Final Home" (in fact) of the NASA - Mars Curiosity Rover and Laboratory. Latitude (centered): 4,48044° South This image (which is an Original Mars Odyssey Orbiter b/w and Map-Projected frame published on the NASA - Planetary Photojournal with the ID n. PIA 19474) has been additionally processed, magnified to aid the visibility of the details, contrast enhanced and sharpened, Gamma corrected and then 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. |
