  • Planet Mars III 28 March- 2 April 2010 POSTERS: ABSTRACT BOOK
    Planet Mars III 28 March- 2 April 2010 POSTERS: ABSTRACT BOOK Recent Science Results from VMC on Mars Express Jonathan Schulster1, Hannes Griebel2, Thomas Ormston2 & Michel Denis3 1 VCS Space Engineering GmbH (Scisys), R.Bosch-Str.7, D-64293 Darmstadt, Germany 2 Vega Deutschland Gmbh & Co. KG, Europaplatz 5, D-64293 Darmstadt, Germany 3 Mars Express Spacecraft Operations Manager, OPS-OPM, ESA-ESOC, R.Bosch-Str 5, D-64293, Darmstadt, Germany. Mars Express carries a small Visual Monitoring Camera (VMC), originally to provide visual telemetry of the Beagle-2 probe deployment, successfully release on 19-December-2003. The VMC comprises a small CMOS optical camera, fitted with a Bayer pattern filter for colour imaging. The camera produces a 640x480 pixel array of 8-bit intensity samples which are recoded on ground to a standard digital image format. The camera has a basic command interface with almost all operations being performed at a hardware level, not featuring advanced features such as patchable software or full data bus integration as found on other instruments. In 2007 a test campaign was initiated to study the possibility of using VMC to produce full disc images of Mars for outreach purposes. An extensive test campaign to verify the camera’s capabilities in-flight was followed by tuning of optimal parameters for Mars imaging. Several thousand images of both full- and partial disc have been taken and made immediately publicly available via a web blog. Due to restrictive operational constraints the camera cannot be used when any other instrument is on. Most imaging opportunities are therefore restricted to a 1 hour period following each spacecraft maintenance window, shortly after orbit apocenter.

  • Appendix I Lunar and Martian Nomenclature
    APPENDIX I LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE A large number of names of craters and other features on the Moon and Mars, were accepted by the IAU General Assemblies X (Moscow, 1958), XI (Berkeley, 1961), XII (Hamburg, 1964), XIV (Brighton, 1970), and XV (Sydney, 1973). The names were suggested by the appropriate IAU Commissions (16 and 17). In particular the Lunar names accepted at the XIVth and XVth General Assemblies were recommended by the 'Working Group on Lunar Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr D. H. Menzel. The Martian names were suggested by the 'Working Group on Martian Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr G. de Vaucouleurs. At the XVth General Assembly a new 'Working Group on Planetary System Nomenclature' was formed (Chairman: Dr P. M. Millman) comprising various Task Groups, one for each particular subject. For further references see: [AU Trans. X, 259-263, 1960; XIB, 236-238, 1962; Xlffi, 203-204, 1966; xnffi, 99-105, 1968; XIVB, 63, 129, 139, 1971; Space Sci. Rev. 12, 136-186, 1971. Because at the recent General Assemblies some small changes, or corrections, were made, the complete list of Lunar and Martian Topographic Features is published here.
