أوليمبوس مونس، أكبر بركان في النظام الشمسي، يرتفع عبر سحب الصباح الباكر على المريخ.
Olympus Mons, the largest volcano in the Solar System, rises through early morning clouds on Mars.
On November 19, 2022 (late-winter in the northern hemisphere), images from the EMM/EXI camera system revealed the fully-developed winter expanse of the North Polar Cap (formed by surface deposits of frost and ice composed of frozen carbon-dioxide and water).
يتدفق عمود سحابي يبلغ طوله أكثر من 1500 كيلومتر غربًا من بركان ثارسيس أرسيا مونس (يبلغ ارتفاعه حوالي 20 كيلومترًا).
A more than 1500 km long cloud plume streams westward from the Tharsis volcano Arsia Mons (itself nearly 20 km high).
Understanding Martian water ice clouds is key to studying the planet's climate. A new study, the first between EMM & ESA’s TGO, reveals how cloud vertical profiles impact data accuracy across latitudes. Learn more in the paper by Aurélien Stcherbinine et al.
The Emirates Mars Mission’s EXI camera captures Mars in "weather satellite views," using visible and UV wavelengths. Meticulous calibration and contrast adjustments ensure clear surface and atmospheric details, even in the bright areas of the South Polar Cap.
Explore the mesmerizing auroras of Mars, where unique processes create phenomena unlike anything on Earth! Dive into the detailed exploration by Justin Deighan in Physics Today as we uncover the secrets behind these stunning Martian light shows.
From crustal-field auroras to proton auroras, the Red Planet continues to amaze. Read more here: pubs.aip.org/physicstoday/ar…
Stay connected with the Emirates Mars Mission as we journey further into the mysteries of Mars.
Mars in mid-autumn, captured by EXI: A 3,500 km-wide dust storm sweeps across Syrtis Major, with bluish water ice clouds high above. Dust hazes obscure the Hellas basin, showcasing the planet’s dynamic atmosphere.
Geo maps show aurora occurrence on Mars from EMM EMUS data. Aurora is frequent in strong vertical crustal field regions and very weak ones with open magnetic topology (field lines connected to the collisional atmosphere).
The Emirates Mars Ultraviolet Spectrometer (EMUS) has observed Martian nightside auroras in far UV wavelengths. Two Mars years of data reveal dependencies on crustal field, magnetic topology, local time, and season, enhancing our understanding of Mars' magnetic environment.
Celebrating Milestones: July 20th marks the anniversary of the Hope Probe’s remarkable journey. Launched to explore the Martian atmosphere and inspire future generations, this historic mission embodies our relentless pursuit of knowledge and innovation. @uaespaceagency
The figure shows variability in average emission intensity profiles of H Lyman emissions across Martian seasons. There's a notable increase in H Ly-γ and Ly-β emissions during the southern summer solstice and dust storms. More in the JGR Space Physics paper by Raghuram Susarla.
Emirates Ultraviolet Spectrograph (EMUS) aboard the Hope Probe captured over 100 images of atomic oxygen emission at 130.4 nm, revealing Mars' upper atmosphere dynamics and escape into space. The sequence shows changes due to Mars' elliptical orbit and background stars.
The Emirates eXploration Imager (EXI) EMM captures full-disk views of Mars every few hours. In Martian year 36, EXI revealed 98 dust storms, detailing their start/end times, sizes, and locations. Check out the study by @UAEU_NEWS Bijay Kumar Guha in @jgrplanets
Welcoming the New Year with unwavering dedication to fulfilling remarkable Mars exploration achievements. May the year ahead be filled with new discoveries and advancements as we continue our mission to unlock the Red Planet’s mysteries.
Happy New Year!
