Hundreds Of New Views From Telescope Orbiting MarsPasadena CA (JPL) Aug 05, 2010 The latest set of new images from the telescopic High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment Camera on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter offers detailed views of diverse Martian landscapes. Features as small as desks are revealed in the 314 observations made between June 6 and July 7, 2010, now available on the camera team's site and NASA's Planetary Data System. The camera is one of six instruments on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, which reached Mars in 2006. ... read more |

Pasadena CA (JPL) Jul 26, 2010Due to Odyssey's safing event none of the planned Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) downlink passes for this period occurred. All available X-band passes (which are normally uplink only) were changed to two-way, but supportable downlink data rates for these passes are low, and only basic engineering telemetry was received. However, this was enough data to determine that the rover continued ... more  
Moffett Field CA (SPX) Jul 23, 2010NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, or WISE, completed its first survey of the entire sky on July 17, 2010. The mission has generated more than one million images so far, of everything from asteroids to distant galaxies. So far, WISE has observed more than 100,000 asteroids, both known and previously unseen. Most of these space rocks are in the main belt between Mars and Jupiter. H ... more 
Pasadena CA (SPX) Jul 22, 2010NASA's Mars Odyssey orbiter put itself into a safe standby mode on Wednesday, July 14, and the team operating the spacecraft has begun implementing careful steps designed to resume Odyssey's science and relay operations this week. Engineers have diagnosed the cause of the safe-mode entry as the spacecraft's proper response to unexpected performance by an electronic encoder. That encoder co ... more |

Wind Cleans Solar PanelsPasadena CA (JPL) Jul 19, 2010 Opportunity's driving campaign toward Endeavour Crater has benefitted from a recent solar array dust-cleaning event. The rover began the past reporting week with a drive of just over 68 meters (223 feet) on Sol 2295 (July 8, 2010). The rover then spent the weekend conducting a robotic arm campaign on a surface target called "Juneau Road Cut," collecting both Microscopic Imager (MI) image stacks and an Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometer (APXS) integration. On Sol 2298 (July 11, 2010), Op ... read more |
