Summary

Description PIA02342: MOC Views of Phobos Shadow The shadow of the martian moon, Phobos, as captured by the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC). The figure shows wide angle red (left), blue (middle), and colour composite (right) views of the shadow of Phobos (elliptical feature at center of each frame) as it was cast upon western Xanthe Terra on August 26, 1999, at about 14:00 local time on Mars. The image covers an area about 250 kilometers (155 mi) across and is illuminated from the left. The meandering Nanedi Valles is visible in the lower right corner of the scene. Note the dark spots on three crater floors--these appear dark in the red camera image (left) but are barely distinguished in the blue image (middle), while the shadow is dark in both images. The spots on the crater floors are probably small fields of dark sand dunes.
