English: PIA17936: Bright 'Evening Star' Seen from Mars is Earth
http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?release=2014-039&1 http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA17936 http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/jpeg/PIA17936.jpg Figure 1 http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/figures/PIA17936_fig1.jpg Figure 2 http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/figures/PIA17936_fig2.jpg This view of the twilight sky and Martian horizon taken by NASA's Curiosity Mars rover includes Earth as the brightest point of light in the night sky. Earth is a little left of center in the image, and our moon is just below Earth. Two annotated versions of this image are also available in Figures 1 and 2. Researchers used the left eye camera of Curiosity's Mast Camera (Mastcam) to capture this scene about 80 minutes after sunset on the 529th Martian day, or sol, of the rover's work on Mars (Jan. 31, 2014). The image has been processed to remove effects of cosmic rays. A human observer with normal vision, if standing on Mars, could easily see Earth and the moon as two distinct, bright "evening stars." NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, manages the Mars Science Laboratory Project for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. JPL designed and built the project's Curiosity rover. Malin Space Science Systems, San Diego, built and operates the rover's Mastcam.

http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?release=2014-039&1 http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA17936 http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/jpeg/PIA17936.jpg Zdjęcie widoku marsjańskiego nieba o zmierzchu wykonane przez należący do NASA łazik Curiosita zawiera Ziemię jako najjaśniejszy punkt światła na nocnym niebie. Ziemia na tym zdjęciu jest nieco na lewo od centrum obrazu, oraz nasz Księżyc jest dokładnie pod Ziemią. Dwa opisane angielskimi adnotacjami zdjęcia są osiągalne poprzez: Naukowcy użyli lewego oka kamery masztowej (Mastcam) łazika Curiosity do zdobycia tej sceny około 80 minut po zachodzie Słońca w 529 marsjańskim dniu, lub w 529 sol, pracy łazika na Marsie, na Ziemi był wtedy 31 stycznia 2014 roku. Zdjęcie to było poddane procesowi usuwania skutków działania promieniowania kosmicznego. Człowiek z normalnym wzrokiem stojący na powierzchni Marsa może zobaczyć bez trudu Ziemię i Księżyc jako dwie wyraźne, jasne "gwiazdy wieczorne". Należący do NASA projekt Mars Science Laboratory używa łazika Curiosity do oszacowania możliwości istnienia w pradawnych dziejach Marsa, możliwości istnienia środowisk będących kolebką życia i głównych zmian jakie w środowisku marsjańskim nastąpiły. Również należący do NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, oddział instytutu California Institute of Technology, w Pasadenie, zbudował łazik i kieruje projektem dla należącego do NASA dyrektoriatu Science Mission Directorate w Waszyngtonie. |
