As promised in another thread... I thought all the images from Surveyor, Apollo etc. needed another place to go than the Mars Forum.
I will start the thing off with a link, not an image. I occasionally have images in Chuck Wood's Lunar Picture of the Day (LPOD) website, www.lpod.org. This URL: http://www.lpod.org/LPOD-2005-05-25.htm is my latest, a Clementine LWIR mosaic. The text accompanying the image explains how I made it. LWIR images from the PDS look useless but they can be made into very nice image strips. In most areas of the Moon they are the highest resolution images available, since the HIRES camera only functioned well over near-polar latitudes. So image junkies who want to see new scenery emerge from their computers can go wild! Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

Here's a full resolution section from the Surveyor 6 panorama. The horizon southeast of the spacecraft.

Phil:
Is this image of any use to you? It's one I've been playing with, and I've been thinking of dropping it into your Tycho panorama... Bob Shaw (Eeek! 1500 posts! I ought to get out more...) -------------------- Remember: Time Flies like the wind - but Fruit Flies like bananas!

Yes, the Internet is making modern society bear a closer and closer resemblance to E.M. Forster's "The Machine Stops"... Which is online thanks to the very same Internet: http://brighton.ncsa.uiuc.edu/~prajlich/forster.html -------------------- "After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance. I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard, and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft." - Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853 |
