Today is the day when Tianwen No. 1 mission launch, the surrounding device returns the image of the fire guard.
Recently, Tianwen No. 1 running team seized the time when the wander was closer to the fire guard, and used high -resolution cameras to look at the fire guard to obtain a clear image of the "full moon" state.
Fire 1 (Phobos, Forbes) is one of Mars two natural satellites, about 27 kilometers × 22 kilometers × 18 kilometers, running on a near -circular orbit of about 6,000 kilometers from the surface of Mars, surrounding Mars every day around Mars About 3 laps. The surrounding device runs at a polar orbit of about 220 kilometers in the near -fire point, about 10,800 kilometers high, and a period of about 7 hours. Due to the orbital relationship between the Weiwei and the surrounding device, and the light requirements during imaging, the running team is accurately calculated and accurately controlled, and a clear image with a resolution of about 50 meters was obtained at a distance of about 5100 kilometers apart.
The image shows that the fire guard is a small celestial body with irregular shapes, which is potato -shaped. The stripes distributed on the upper left can be seen. It may be formed by the impact of the impact process. A kilometer, named Epik (öPik) impact pits (Epik is an Estonian astronomer, is known for studying asteroids and meteorites).
Another satellite of Mars is Deimos (Demos), with an average radius of only about 6.2 kilometers. The two satellites are named after the two sons of the God of War in ancient Greek mythology. The Greeks once called Mars with Ares. These two satellites are irregular small celestial bodies. Many scientists believe that they are captured into the Mars orbit by Mars gravitational, but their sources are still controversial.
