  1. Observations like this, and probably others we haven't noticed, may be the answer to why #Perseverance has been going in circles up and down, left and right in this wide area called Lac De Charmes.

    "so we have stereo" sounds like an invitation 🤓

    Here's a quick stereogram, left pair for parallel viewing, right pair for cross-eyed viewing.

  3. New sol, new location, new site number 91. Relative to site coordinates x, y, z are reset to zero, so this is mostly guesswork.

    That interface between smooth and rocky terrain ahead may be it. The destination.

  4. That would have been the first crater to be closely examined by #Perseverance, but apparently it wasn't meant to be. Before even the digital ink in which my post was writen was dry, the rover moved once again, and is now past that little crater.

  5. On the go again, but no idea where to.

    #Perseverance's new location
    Sol: 1941, RMC: 90.3664
    The path shown is a guess. Your guess would be as good as mine.

  6. One thing is certain, the Sunderland East End skyline is going to change dramatically when the Lambton, Londonderry and Lumley Towers are finally demolished.
    It was last year that the announcement was made by Gentoo that the three blocks of flats would be bulldozed with repair costs of more than £15m needed for each block.
    Hi-rise living is perhaps not everybody's preferred choice, but I bet those living on the higher floors enjoy some cracking views looking out across the riverside and watching the big vessels coming and going into the Port of Sunderland.

  8. #Perseverance: an increasingly autonomous #rover... (1/2)

    Analysis of images acquired by the #HiRISE camera on the #Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, combined with the use of altimetry data, enabled a visual language model to plan the #route of the Perseverance rover. After verification, the commands were transmitted to Mars. For the very first time in its history, Perseverance followed a trajectory designed by #AI! 👏

  9. #Perseverance : un #rover toujours plus autonome ... (1/2)

    L'analyse des images acquises par la caméra #HiRISE de la sonde #Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, combinée à l'utilisation de données altimétriques, ont permis à un modèle de language visuel de planifier l'#itinéraire du rover Perseverance. Après vérification, les commandes ont été transmises sur Mars. Pour la toute première fois de son histoire, Perseverance a suivi une trajectoire dessinée par #IA ! 👏

  10. #Perseverance either drove into a dead end and is now surrounded by heaps of sand, or found something interesting there, which we don't see yet…

  12. 📸 Dark Sand Cascades on Mars
    Dark streaks on pinkish dunes near Mars' North Pole resemble trees, but they're actually sand slides exposed as CO₂ frost melts in spring. Captured by the HiRISE camera on NASA’s MRO.

  13. #MarsPoetica

    Speaking about the University of Arizona, home of #HiRISE, the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment in Mars orbit:

    "We believe that HiRISE is an intersection between science and culture. We often post lines of poetry, aphorisms and literary quotations in different languages […] paired with an image that is meant to show that Mars can also be a place of inspiration and reflection."

    Does it ring a bell?

    No, they are not Hamas, nor are they terrorists, communists or Chinese spies.

    They are researchers at the University of Arizona (UA) who just achieved a breakthrough in electronics: a petahertz (giga=10⁹, tera=10¹², peta=10¹⁵) phototransistor in ambient conditions.

    This is the same UA that brings us the #HiRISE imagery used in detailed Mars maps.

  15. After a very long stay at Pine Pond #Perseverance has now moved further down hill, apparently reaching the bottom of the Witch Hazel Hill area, where it has spent the last 120 sols examining rocks.

    The path shown is a guess. Elevations are from the Octavia E. Butler landing location.

    The map was made in #QGIS, using #NASA's #MMGIS and #HiRISE and #USGS imagery and DTMs.

  16. (24 Apr) This Haunting Image Is the First Orbital View of Curiosity Moving Across Mars

    The HiRise camera is living up to its name, capturing a rare look at the veteran rover from way up in Martian orbit.

  17. [Focus sur #HiRISE] Installé depuis près de deux ans sur le Very Large Telescope (#VLT) de l' @esoastronomy (European Southern Observatory), l'instrument HiRISE vient de caractériser, avec une précision inégalée, la jeune #exoplanète AF Lep b. La mesure directe de la lumière émise a permis de déterminer la composition de son #atmosphere ainsi que la vitesse à laquelle elle décrit son orbite autour de son étoile hôte. Il est ainsi apparu que cette exoplanète était similaire à #Jupiter dans notre Système Solaire.

    AF Lep b n’est que la première cible du relevé HiRISE commencé en 2023. D’ici quelques années, toutes les planètes géantes connues en imagerie auront été observées avec HiRISE, ce qui permettra de tester de manière statistique les liens entre composition, vitesse de rotation et mode de formation.

  18. #Perseverance has now arrived at the area called Broom's Point.

    Tosol is Sol 1435 of the #Mars2020 mission, Lₛ is 52.1, and the local time in Jezero Crater is now 18:21.

  19. #Ingenuity amazed everyone in late April 2022, when it flew around and captured images of the parachute and backshell that brought #Perseverance and itself to #Mars.

    Here, the parachute is seen from orbit through the eyes of #HiRISE, an instrument onboard #NASA's #MRO, launched back in 2005.

    The animation spreads over 12 months but lasts only 3 seconds, so the parachute appears flapping.

  21. #PPOD: Absolutely amazing #HiRISE image of #Mars. Polygons form in nature for many different reasons. In this case, it's due to intersecting dune ridges! If this deposit were to become indurated and eroded, we might not be able, from orbit, to tell that they originated as wind-blown dunes and interpret the polygons as evidence for a dried-up lake, for example.

  22. #Perseverance's 5th campaign, named Northern Rim, on the map (comes out being about 9km from Lookout Hill to Singing Canyon).

    Now, if you call this part of *western* Jezero Crater 'northern', then it follows that there will also be a *southern* rim campaign in the future 😎

    Digitized in #QGIS from a screenshot of the video in the article above.

  23. Another sol, another 40m higher and 200m closer to the top, Lookout Hill, for #Perseverance. The new path shown on the map is a guess.
