Curiosity Mars probe: calculated first 3D images
While further tests provide information about the state of NASA's Curiosity, installation of 2.1 meter high mast of the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) is prepared. Meanwhile, could be composed of first images 3D images. The anaglyph can be viewed with red-blue glasses. The raw material comes from the so-called hazard avoidance cameras (Hazcams), two of which are installed side by side. Their dust has now been removed, the picture quality has improved significantly.
But the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) has forwarded his acceptance of the approach to land another picture of Curiosity. Then the scattered remnants of the Martian soil are to see the different parts of the probe. Particularly clearly the parachute and the impact of the so-called traces Sky Crane. But the remains of the heat shield and armor, go to the Curiosity during parachute flight, you can see. Around the middle of the image is Curiosity with the MSL.
With this detailed information about the landing site of Curiosity, it is now much more clearly exactly how the environment looks like. On this basis, could also be the first color photo classified the probe from the Martian surface and extended by computer graphics. The result gives an impression of the horizon, as he offers Curiosity.
Such post-processed or placed in the context of NASA images found for example in the photo journal of the space agency mission or on the side. In the original images received are also being collected in a separate area, ordered only by the admission date, starting with Sol 0, Curiositys on the first day of Mars. Here, however, find many images whose content without explanation or classification is not visible or difficult.
