큐리오시티호가 보내온 사진들 - 1

 

 

 

이 사진은 화성에 착륙한 큐리오시티 로버가 최초로 촬영한 사진들 중 하나이다.

사진은 큐리오시티 전면에 장착된 위험회피 카메라중 하나인 어안광각렌즈로 촬영되었으며, 촬영가능한 최고해상도의 4분의 1 해상도로 촬영되었다.

왼쪽 사진은 큐리오시티 전면 중앙부에 위치하고 있는 한쌍의 카메라렌즈중 왼쪽 렌즈로, 그리고 오른쪽 사진은 오른쪽 렌즈로 촬영된 것이다. 
 
먼지방지막이 여전히 부착되어 있으며 3개의 먼지방지막잠금장치를 따라 모서리쪽으로 먼지들이 껴있는 모습을 볼 수 있다.

큐리오시티 로버의  그림자가 바닥에 비친 모습을 볼 수 있다. 
 
계획대로 큐리오시티 로버의 초기영상들은 모두 낮은 해상도로 촬영되었다.

이번주 후반 고해상도 카메라의 전개가 완료되면 보다 큰 컬러사진을 얻을 수 있게 될 것이다.

PIA15969: Curiosity Snaps Picture of Its Shadow

 

Original Caption Released with Image:

This is one of the first images taken by NASA's Curiosity rover, which landed on Mars the evening of Aug. 5 PDT (morning of Aug. 6 EDT). It was taken through a "fisheye" wide-angle lens on one of the rover's front Hazard-Avoidance cameras at one-quarter of full resolution. The camera is the left eye of a stereo pair positioned at the middle of the rover's front side.

The clear dust cover on the camera is still on in this view, and dust can be seen around its edge, along with three cover fasteners. The rover's shadow is visible in the foreground.

As planned, the rover's early engineering images are lower resolution. Larger color images are expected later in the week when the rover's mast, carrying high-resolution cameras, is deployed.
