This blue and white Mars





In early August, the site HiRISE telescope standing in the Martian orbital probe Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter appeared fresh as much as a thousand pictures. And if you look at Mars from a distance seems uniformly red or orange, then close it looks much more diverse planet.

There can be a lot of olivine (a mineral widely distributed in igneous rocks). Even in natural colors, an interesting spectacle.



And if you connect an infrared channel, it becomes even more beautiful.



Gullies in the dunes, natural colors.



The crater on a plateau Hesperia, added infrared channel, artificial color.



Again dunes here, surprisingly, natural colors.



This recently something fell, artificial color.



Deposits in the Labyrinth of Night (natural colors).



Gullies (natural colors).



Plot chaos Atlantis (artificial color).



"Spiders" (gas geysers) - natural colors

.

Virtual tour of Mars, I think, an excellent lesson for Friday evening. Remember, the pictures here.
