After watching these pictures I'm still wondering about the reality of the Amata basin.
These pictures as well as most of the pictures of the same region taken with a lower resolution (Voyager 1 included) seem to show that it indeed exists. However, the high resolution pictures (which were all taken at low sun angle) do not show any trace of the basin. After the close flybys I was convinced about its non-existence, but now, I again have a doubt. So could it be a kind of palimpsest indicating a very old basin almost erased by the younger overlying tectonic patterns or is it just an optic illusion due to fortuitous placing of tectonic, impact and albedo features ? |
