The MAVEN orbiter has captured two ultraviolet images of the Red Planet taken at opposite points along its orbit around the Sun.
orbiter has captured some incredible ultraviolet images of the Red Planet taken at two different points along its orbit around the Sun.
The two images were taken by MAVEN’s Imaging Ultraviolet Spectrograph instrument which measures wavelengths between 110 and 340 nanometers, which is outside the visible spectrum. The first image, below, was captured in July 2022 during Mars’s southern hemisphere’s summer season, which coincides with the planet’s closest point to the Sun. Similar to how seasons work on Earth, the summer on Mars is caused by a tilt in the Red Planet’s rotational axis.
