NASA gives us a spectacular view of Mars


Since we are so apt to commemorate events and fill the calendar of festivals and holidays in this week could name it the "Week of Science". While the headlines have been familiar to the Higgs boson , we did not want photographers to be less and we also had our share of science. In the unlikely picture of the shadow of an atom was followed by an incredible image of a solar eclipse and now, to top it off, this spectacular view of Mars .

What are your eyes is the red planet photographed by the Pancam 's Opportunity , one of the robots that are studying the Martian soil. In the foreground you have the solar panels deployed team, just beyond the tracks of the vehicle and in the background you can even see part of the famous Endeavour crater .

Not about to use a panoramic photo. This panorama of color is misleading to facilitate observation consists of 817 photographs captured during more than 4 months, which also are divided into different wavelengths . That is, they have photographed using filters for recording wavelength near-infrared, green and violet.
