Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) Context Camera (CTX)
The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) Context Camera (CTX) is currently orbiting Mars and acquring grayscale (black & white) images at 6 meters per pixel scale over a swath 30 kilometers wide. CTX provides context images for the MRO HiRISE and CRISM, is used to monitor changes occurring on the planet, acquires stereopairs of select, critical science targets, and has (as of February 2010) covered more than 50% of the planet. |
