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 ) of HiRISE screen sized sub-images. Not necessarily the most amazing bits, but a bit random, I find myself quite drawn to the less obvious bits that no one may have seen yet. 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. James -------------------- |

I'd like to share this crop from 'Holden Crater Layers', Primary Science Phase, release #3.
A rather large portion of the actual image but still reasonably within reach for those of you on dial-up. (~30 Mbytes) I find the geological complexity of this image just utterly mind-blowing! But maybe that's because I'm no geologist http://www.awalkonmars.com/PSP_001468_1535..._crop100per.jpg Right-click 'save target as' for download.

Interesting how in the top portion of the image, the cracks are polygonal, but in the center, the cracks become square. What happened in the lower right portion of the image to scramble up the terrain so much? |
