Summary
[edit]DescriptionCharon Topographic Map NASA PIA19866.jpg |
Italiano: Mappa topografica di Caronte, il maggiore dei satelliti naturali di Plutone. La proiezione usata per la rappresentazione della superficie è cilindrica semplice. L'area rappresentata (comprese le zone scure per cui non sono disponibili immagini) va dai 180°W ai 180°E (sinistra-destra) e dai 90°N ai 90°S (alto-basso).
English: The science team of NASA's New Horizons mission has produced this global map of Pluto's largest moon, Charon. The map includes all available resolved images of the surface acquired between July 7-14, 2015, at pixel resolutions ranging from 40 kilometers (24 miles) on the anti-Pluto facing hemisphere (left and right sides of the map), to 400 meters (1,250 feet) per pixel on portions of the Pluto-facing hemisphere -- the side facing the New Horizons spacecraft when it flew past the dwarf planet -- at map center. Many additional images now stored on the spacecraft's digital data recorders are expected to be transmitted "home" in fall 2015 and these will be used to complete the global map. The map is in simple cylindrical projection, with zero longitude (the Pluto-facing direction) in the center. |
