In this quite interesting VIS image, taken by the NASA - Mars Odyssey Orbiter on August, 14th, 2003, and during its 7.381st orbit around the Red Planet, we can see a small portion of the Northern Wall of Candor Chasma. Please notice, just out of curiosity, the extremely high Albedo (---> Reflectivity) of the upper portion of the captioned Northern Wall which is situated right in the upper left - Sx - corner of the frame, that caused an over-saturation of the relief. Latitude (centered): 4,72297° 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 19481) 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. |
