Thermal imaging of the surface of Mars

Thermal imaging of the surface of Mars

The Thermoscan experiment on the Phobos 2 spacecraft provided thermal images of far higher resolution than previous data, giving more comprehensive data on the temperature distribution and thermal inertia of the surface of Mars and its relief elements and made it possible to search for small thermal...
