Just wondering if the "extraordinary" brightness of this dust\storm\wotsit event is related to opposition surge:
QUOTE On 28 October 09:08 UT and 7 November 04:10 UT Jim Bell (Cornell University) and the Hubble Heritage team will observe Mars. The first date will be near Mars closest approach and the second near Mars opposition. This particular observation will be the closest to zero phase angle ever observed with HST and one of the scientific efforts will be to study the "opposition surge" effect. From Marswatch |
