With three spectra. The Hope spacecraft takes precise photos of the Martian atmosphere. Video

The first image of Mars taken at sunrise, which was characterized with great precision, revealed the “Olympus” volcano, which is the largest volcano on Mars and the largest volcano in the solar system.

The image was taken at an altitude of about 25,000 km above the surface of Mars. At the top left of the image, the North Pole of Mars is visible, and the “Olympus Society” volcano can be seen in the center of the image with the advent of sunlight.

The image also clearly shows the three volcanoes near the equator on Mars, which are the top of Ascarius, the top of Pavonis, and the top of Arsia.

Details in the image showed snow clouds over the southern highlands (bottom right of the image) as well as around the “Olympus Munis” volcano, which appears in the top left, and clouds Of snow are clearly visible (at the top of the image and to the right of the center) when looking between the planet and the space around it, and the availability of these clouds Snow visible in different geographical areas and at different times of the day An overview of the contribution of the hope probe to improving our understanding of the climate on Mars.

The digital camera is one of the 3 advanced scientific devices carried by the Hope probe to study the planet Mars, namely the “EMIRS infrared spectrometer”, which measures the temperature and distribution of dust, vapor from water and ice clouds in the lower layer of the atmosphere. , and the “spectrophotometer” above the rays of the Violet EMUS atmosphere, which measures oxygen and carbon monoxide in the Martian thermal layer and hydrogen and oxygen in the Martian outer layer.

These three devices help to give a complete picture of the climate of Mars and its different layers of the atmosphere, which would allow a deep understanding of the atmospheric processes of the Red Planet.
