Doug I know this isn't exactly a "sub-element activity", but it's certainly a small image.
Can someone tell us anything about this MECA plaque. They don't seem to have captured the entire thing in their shots and it would be nice to fill in some of the blanks. I've inserted some assumptions in the attached merged image. Just love these sort of personal touches which have stories linked to them. My name is on the mini-DVD...who else on UMSF signed up?

They are very pretty grains. The illumination was RGB for some of the false color images we've seen here. The substrate was the "strong magnet", per the table.

Thanks for the link CR, very useful and interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing what the real imaging experts here do with the microscope images coming down. I didn't think I'd find them so interesting, if I'm honest... I'm definitely a "rocks" fan rather than a "grains" fan, but there's something fascinating about seeing Mars in such close-up... While I'm here, can I just invite everyone over to my new Phoenix pictures site? I thought it made sense to tidy up all my clutter and put it in one place. It's going to be a gallery of unashamedly pretty pictures, with no claims of accuracy or scientific worth; just my own cosy little den where I can hang my favourite pics and share them with anyone who wants a look, too... Hope some of you will drop by - and if you'd like a link to your own pictures site putting on it, just drop me a line, ok? -------------------- |
