NASA 오늘의 사진(2023-07-08)

안녕하세요, 프리덤 알제이입니다. 

오늘은 NASA에서 어떤 우주의 모습을 보여주는지 궁금합니다.

이 사진의 제목은 Stickney Crater 입니다. 

NASA에서의 공식적으로 제공한 설명을 보시죠.

 

<Stickney Crater, the largest crater on the martian moon Phobos, is named for Chloe Angeline Stickney Hall, mathematician and wife of astronomer Asaph Hall. Asaph Hall discovered both the Red Planet's moons in 1877. Over 9 kilometers across, Stickney is nearly half the diameter of Phobos itself, so large that the impact that blasted out the crater likely came close to shattering the tiny moon. This enhanced-color image of Stickney and surroundings was recorded by the HiRISE camera onboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter as it passed within some six thousand kilometers of Phobos in March of 2008. Even though the surface gravity of asteroid-like Phobos is less than 1/1000th Earth's gravity, streaks suggest loose material slid down inside the crater walls over time. Light bluish regions near the crater's rim could indicate a relatively freshly exposed surface. The origin of the curious grooves along the surface is mysterious but may be related to tidal stresses experienced by close-orbiting Phobos or the crater-forming impact itself.;

 

오늘도 흥미로운 우주, 광할한 우주영상을 보며, 그 우주에 살고있는 저희가 위대해 보입니다.

오늘도 즐거운 하루 되시고, 우주 영상/사진은 꾸준히 업로드 되니 꼭 또 구경오세요.
