[漢羅] Tī 火星閃爍 ê 雲

這是 ùi 火星好奇號探測車 ê Mast kha-mé-lah 翕 ê 相片。 Chhāi tī 前景 ê 是 已經風化–去、閣有一重一重 ê Mercou 山。 這張影像是 kā 21 張獨立影像鬥做一張 ê，有記錄著 三月 19 tī 火星 ê 日頭落山了後 ê 景色。 彼工嘛是 好奇號探索這粒紅色行星 第 2063 工 ê 火星日。 Tī 火星 ê 暗頭仔 kah 暝尾，高海拔 ê 雲 猶 tī 面頂 leh 爍-leh 爍-leh。 這是反射 已經落-lǒe 當地地平線下跤 ê 太陽光，to̍h 親像是地球 ê 夜光雲 仝款。 雖然水冰雲是浮 tī 火星薄薄 ê 大氣層面頂，毋閣這寡 煙雲嘛是 chhāi tī 極端海拔 ê 所在，所以 in ê 成份嘛有可能是 ùi 堅凍 ê 二酸化炭素 kah 乾冰冰晶組成 ê。 好奇號 ê Mast kha-mé-lah 嘛翕著多彩 ê 真珠母 雲，煞 替火星 ê 天頂 增加袂少色彩。

[English] The Shining Clouds of Mars

The weathered and layered face of Mount Mercou looms in the foreground of this mosaic from the Curiosity Mars rover’s Mast Camera. Made up of 21 individual images the scene was recorded just after sunset on March 19, the 3,063rd martian day of Curiosity’s on going exploration of the Red Planet. In the martian twilight high altitude clouds still shine above, reflecting the light from the Sun below the local horizon like the noctilucent clouds of planet Earth. Though water ice clouds drift through the thin martian atmosphere, these wispy clouds are also at extreme altitudes and could be composed of frozen carbon dioxide, crystals of dry ice. Curiosity’s Mast Cam has also imaged iridescent or mother of pearl clouds adding subtle colors to the martian sky.
