Figure 10: Global map of the ammoniated phyllosilicates absorption band. The colour shows the strength of the ammoniated phyllosilicates absorption band at 3.1 micron; dark colours indicate deeper band. Dashed lines indicate the boundaries of the three planitiae (seeFig. 7). The map is a Mollwe...
鈥 Thus viscous relaxation is a viable hypothesis to explain the topographic profiles of a number of lunar floor-fractured craters, and the extent of viscous relaxation of crater topography may serve as a tool to map lateral and temporal variations in the shallow thermal structure of the moon ...
An improved map of the lunar south pole with earth based radar interferometry NASApsilas long-term exploration goals include a return to manned missions to the Moon that will culminate in a permanent manned station on the Moon. Prior... S Hensley,E Gurrola,P Rosen,... - IEEE 被引量: ...
The diameter at which craters become complex depends on the surface gravity of the planet: The greater the gravity, the smaller the diameter that will produce a complex structure. On Earth, this transition diameter is 2 to 4 kilometers (1.2 to 2.5 miles) depending on target rock properties;...
Introduction: The Magellan SAR images provide sufficient data to compile a geological map of nearly the entire surface of Venus. Such a global and selfconsistent map serves as the base to address the key questions of the geologic history... MA Ivanov - European Planetary Science Congress 2008 ...
Then, in the Terrain Inspector, click on the'Edit Terrain'button. This will bring up the Terrain Editor window. In the Terrain Editor window, select the'Stamp'tool from the toolbar. Then, in the'Stamp Settings'panel, select the heightmap you want to use for your stamp. You can...
A virtual look at the Hiawatha crater, peeling away the layers of ice on top of it. Scientists map the bedrock below the ice using radar waves beamed from an aircraft. The waves travel through the ice and bounce back to receivers on the plane. From the changes in the waves, researchers...
Geologic map of the northern hemisphere of Vesta based on Dawn Framing Camera (FC) images The Dawn Framing Camera (FC) has imaged the northern hemisphere of the Asteroid (4) Vesta at high spatial resolution and coverage. This study represents th... O Ruesch,H Hiesinger,DT Blewett,... -...
Fig.4for a plot of the Crater Size-Frequency Distribution of the detections). The population of small craters <60 m, where the diameter is generally overestimated up to 50% does not dominate the population of craters used to populate the blue band of the density map shown on Fig.1a. ...
The Delaware/Pennsylvania arc is a circle, sure, but so is every other allegedly "straight" line on the map. The 49N parallel looks like a straight line on some projections, but a polar projection shows that it is clearly a circle around a point on the Earth's axis. The Delaware/Penns...
