오늘의 우주 사진 (2023-05-05)

최근 NASA에서 우주 모습을 알려줬는데요 과연 어떻게 보여질지 기대가 됩니다
그러면 지금부터 이미지를 살펴보겠습니다

 

이 사진의 이름은 Shackleton from ShadowCam 인데요 국제기구인 NASA에서도 공식 자료를 확인해보도록 하겠습니다

 

Shackleton crater lies at the lunar south pole. Peaks along the 21 kilometer diameter are in sunlight, but Shackleton's floor is in dark permanent shadow. Still, this image of the shadowed rim wall and floor of Shackleton crater was captured from NASA's ShadowCam, an instrument on board the Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO) launched in August 2022. About 200 times more sensitive than, for example, the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter's Narrow Angle Camera, ShadowCam was designed image the permanently shadowed regions of the lunar surface. Avoiding direct sunlight, those regions are expected to be reservoirs of water-ice and other volatiles deposited by ancient cometary impacts and useful to future Moon missions. Of course, the permanently shadowed regions are still illuminated by reflections of sunlight from nearby lunar terrain. In this stunningly detailed ShadowCam image, an arrow marks the track made by a single boulder rolling down Shackleton crater's wall. The image scale is indicated at the bottom of the frame.

 

이번에도 광대한 우주크기에 인간이 얼마나 작은지 확인하게 되는 사건입니다
그러면 다음시간에 더 좋은 정보들을 들고 오도록 하겠습니다 행복한 지구여행 되시길 바랍니다
