Close-Up of Sol 24 Sunset
title Close-Up of Sol 24 Sunset
description This is a close-up of the sunset on Sol 24 as seen by the Imager for Mars Pathfinder. The red sky in the background and the blue around the Sun are approximately as they would appear to the human eye. The color of the Sun itself is not correct -- the Sun was overexposed in each of the 3 color images that were used to make this picture. The true color of the Sun itself may be near white or slightly bluish. Mars Pathfinder is the second in NASA's Discovery program of low-cost spacecraft with highly focused science goals. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA, developed and manages the Mars Pathfinder mission for NASA's Office of Space Science, Washington, D.C. JPL is a division of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech).

Yogi Rock
Title Yogi Rock
Explanation This portrait [ http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/marsnews/img/81203.txt ] of Yogi Rock, a now famous boulder on Mars [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap970627.html ], was recorded on Sol [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap970706.html ] 3 by the Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP [ http://imp.lpl.arizona.edu/mars/ ]). Big and friendly looking like its Earth cartoon namesake Yogi Bear, Yogi Rock is a prominent visible feature at the Pathfinder landing site [ http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/marsnews/landingsite.html ]. Yogi and surrounding [ http://www.sun.com/mars/default.html ] soil are being examined close up [ http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/marsnews/pf07091.txt ] by the Sojourner robot rover. Initial attempts [ http://www.sun.com/mars/ops/rvrmovie.html ] to approach the rock and to place Sojourner's Alpha Proton X-ray Spectrometer [ http://mars.sgi.com/mpf/sci_desc.html#APXS ] against it have met with some minor, but not unusual, difficulties [ http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/marsnews/pf970710.html ]. It is speculated that the light colored "moat-like" terrain around Yogi is the result of the evaporation of surface water deposited by ancient floods.

Explanation A ramp from the Pathfinder lander [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap970705.html ], the Sojourner robot rover [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap970707.html ], airbags, a couch, Barnacle Bill [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap970708.html ], and Yogi Rock [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap970711.html ] appear together in this 3D stereo view of the surface of Mars [ http://mars.sgi.com/ops/sol8.html ]. Barnacle Bill is the rock just left of the solar-paneled Sojourner and Yogi is the big friendly-looking boulder at the right. The "couch" is the angular rock shape visible on the horizon. Look at the image with red/blue glasses [ http://img.arc.nasa.gov/archive/desert96/redblue.html ] (... or just hold a piece of clear red plastic over your left eye and blue or green over your right) to get the dramatic 3D perspective. The stereo view was recorded by the remarkable Imager for Mars Pathfinder [ http://www.lpl.arizona.edu/imp/ ] (IMP) camera. The IMP has [ http://www.lpl.arizona.edu/imp/how.does/how.does.html ] two optical paths for stereo imaging and ranging and is equipped with an array of color filters for spectral analysis. Operating as [ http://mars.sgi.com/default.html ] the "first astronomical observatory on Mars" the IMP has also recorded images of the Sun and Deimos, the smallest of Mars' two tiny moons. Overcoming communications problems [ http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/marsnews/pf970714.html ] and computer resets the Pathfinder is transmitting [ http://www.lpl.arizona.edu/imp/update.html ] new color images which should be available July 18.

Title ASI/MET - 3D
Description The Atmospheric Structure Instrument/Meteorology Package (ASI/MET) is the mast and windsocks at the center of this color image, taken in stereo by the Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP) on Sol 3. The instrument appears in two different sections due to image parallax. The ASI/MET is an engineering subsytem that acquired atmospheric data during Pathfinder's descent, and will continue to get more data through the entire landed mission. The windsocks are seen pointing almost completely up, representing little wind movement at the three locations of the windsocks. A rock at left holds a shadow of the ASI/MET, indicating the sun's position is at the rear right. Portions of a lander petal and deflated airbag are visible, in addition to several rocks of varying sizes in the distance.

Original Caption Released with Image This image represents the first two tiers of a 360- degree color panorama, taken by the Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP). The metallic object at far lower left is a portion of the lander's low-gain antenna. At left, the forward ramp is visible near the larger rocks dubbed Wedge, Flat Top, and Half-Dome. The magenta and yellow strips near the center represent portions of missing data. Rover Sojourner is situated on the soil after its successful deployment on Sol 5. To its immediate left is the rock dubbed "Barnacle Bill," and in front of it lies the larger rock dubbed "Yogi." Two additional areas of deflated airbags are at the right-center and right of the panorama. The mast and windsocks at far right is the Atmospheric Structure Instrument/Meteorology Package (ASI/MET). Their upward position indicates little air movement. A shadow of the ASI/MET has been cast upon a rock just in front of it, indicating sunlight is coming from the rear right.

Barnacle Bill, the small rock at left, and Yogi, the large rock at upper right, have been examined by Sojourner's Alpha Proton X-Ray Spectrometer (APXS) instrument and the rover's cameras. Barnacle Bill has the chemical composition of an andesitic volcanic rock, but may have been produced by sedimentation processes or meteorite impact. The lander's rear ramp which Sojourner used to descend to the Martian surface is at lower left, and a portion of deflated airbag is at lower right.

Title Sojourner's APXS at work
Original Caption Released with Image The image was taken by the Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP) on Sol 4. The rover Sojourner has traveled to an area of soil and several rocks. Its tracks are clearly visible in the soft soil seen in the foreground, and were made in part by the rover's material abrasion experiment. Scientists were able to control the force of the rover's cleated wheels to help determine the physical properties of the soil. In this image, Sojourner is using its Alpha Proton X-Ray Spectrometer (APXS) instrument to study an area of soil. Sunlight is striking the area from the left, creating shadows under Sojourner and at the right of local rocks. The large rock Yogi can be seen at upper right.

Original Caption Released with Image Mars Pathfinder's forward rover ramp can be seen successfully unfurled in this color image, taken by the Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP) on Sol 3. This ramp was not used for the deployment of the microrover Sojourner, which occurred at the end of Sol 2. When this image was taken, Sojourner was still latched to one of the lander's petals, waiting for the command sequence that would execute its descent off of the lander's petal. The image helped Pathfinder scientists determine whether to deploy the rover using the forward or backward ramps and the nature of the first rover traverse. The metallic object at the lower part of the image is the lander's low-gain antenna. The square at the end of the ramp is one of the spacecraft's magnetic targets.
