The photograph was taken by the European Space Agency's Mars Express spacecraft in June 2004. The crater and surrounding region have been heavily eroded over millions of years by a combination of wind and water. There is even evidence at the bottom of the picture of a network of fluvial channels, which were probably caused by running water. http://www.universetoday.com/am/publish/crater_hale.html <a href="http://www.universetoday.com/am/publish/crater_hale.html";>AOL Link</a> BEST VIEWS OF TITAN AND TETHYS Nov 24, 2004 - Cassini's image team has released two new photographs taken by the spacecraft that show two of Saturn's moons in unprecedented detail: Titan and Tethys. The picture of fog enshrouded Titan is actually a mosaic of 9 individual images stitched together that were taken as Cassini approached. The photograph of Tethys is actually in natural colour, and shows how neutral the moon looks. Tethys has a density similar to water, so scientists believe the moon is mainly composed of water ice. Cassini will make a much closer approach to Tethys in September 2005. http://www.universetoday.com/am/publish/best_views_titan_tethys.html <a href="http://www.universetoday.com/am/publish/best_views_titan_tethys.html";>AOL Link</a> Additional headlines from Universe Today http://www.universetoday.com/am/exec/search.cgi?start=5&perpage=8&template=index/default.html <a href="http://www.universetoday.com/am/exec/search.cgi?start=4&perpage=8&template=index/default.html";>AOL Link</a> All contents copyright (c) 2004 Universe Today ----------------------------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe from: Universe Today - Daily Edition (Text), just follow this link: http://www.universetoday.com/mojo/mojo.cgi?f=u&l=ut%2dtext&[EMAIL PROTECTED]&p=4996766 Click this link, or copy and paste the address into your browser.
