OK folks. I have to admit I'm starting to feel a little overwhelmed in HiRISE images already, and I know the tap hasn't even been turned fully on yet! There is just so much territory to be looked at.
To help us all see just a little bit more I propose that we start a 'Picture of the day' type thing (not necessarily one per day, the more the merrier ![]() ![]() I'm going to use the same filenames as the original images appended with approximate pixel coordinates of the sub-image so that it can be found easily in the original.

I know this request will be blasphemy for some, but...
I for one would appreciate a 10 or 25 meter scale bar somewhere on each HiRise image. The “human scale” of planetscapes and moonscapes is what has always attracted me to unmanned space flight; I love to imagine myself at the scene. Could I step over those polygonal cracks at Becquerel? Standing in a trough in the dust lake, could I see over the next dune crest? Problem is, I have to carefully read the caption or get out the calculator to figure out the scale – how much more user-friendly to have a scale bar in each image. Instant gratification! |
