First MRO HiRISE image

[radarredux]

The first Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter HiRISE image (with a scale of about 1 foot per pixel) is online at<br /><br />http://hiroc.lpl.arizona.edu/images/TRA/TRA_000823_1720/<br /><br />Someone also has a blog showing the team as the picture comes in. They also have a large wall of monitors to display more of the image (the image in the link above is only a portion of the full image).<br /><br />http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/HiBlog/<br />

Very detailed. I can even see individual rocks or at least thats what they look like. They appear as black specks (Their shadows) and are quite noticeable at the right side of the image.<br /><br />Nice links, thanks. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><strong>My borrowed quote for the time being:</strong></p><p><em>There are three kinds of people in life.
