Earth From Mars (Zemlja sa Marsa)


Here's an interesting short article on the Earth from Mars.
I find very interesting, and I hope it will be you.



This is the first image ever taken of Earth from the surface of a planet beyond the Moon. It was taken by the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit one hour before sunrise on the 63rd Martian day, or sol, of its mission. (March 8, 2004)

The image is a mosaic of images taken by the rover's navigation camera showing a broad view of the sky, and an image taken by the rover's panoramic camera of Earth. The contrast in the panoramic camera image was increased two times to make Earth easier to see.The inset shows a combination of four panoramic camera images zoomed in on Earth. The arrow points to Earth. Earth was too faint to be detected in images taken with the panoramic camera's color filters.

And here are the picture.

  1. Woah, it's so cool *0*
    And the color of the image either shows us that, indeed, the sun beems reflect from our planets oceans and make the sky blue and that there is no water there so the sky is grey or the camera is just black and white ouo

  2. Thank you :)
    Information that is why the sky is blue I learned from my very dear and esteemed person.
    The camera is fine, it's just that.
    Fascinating is not it?
