Au Sol 1419, Curiosity a utilis\u00e9 sa cam\u00e9ra \u00e0 la focale la plus \u00e9lev\u00e9e (donc la plus \u00ab\u00a0grossissante\u00a0\u00bb) sur les buttes Murray, et quelque chose situ\u00e9 en arri\u00e8re-plan. Ce quelque chose ne couvre qu’une petite surface mais en dis long sur les dimensions du site. Devant, un morceau d’affleurement rocheux avec de multiples strates, qui, telles un livre, renseignent sur l’histoire ar\u00e9ologique de Mars. Plus loin, un autre affleurement. Et plus loin encore, d’autres \u00e9l\u00e9ments, qui nous paraissent insignifiants mais qui sont des collines de plusieurs centaines de m\u00e8tres de haut. Et il y en a plein. Plus loin encore, les pentes d’Aeolis Mons, couvertes de rides, qui sont autant de vallons encaiss\u00e9s, profonds de plusieurs centaines de m\u00e8tres ! Enfin, la cr\u00eate de la montagne, qui nous surplombe probablement de mille m\u00e8tres, voire plus. Mars, c’est la d\u00e9mesure. Et cette vue spectaculaire en saisi toute l’infime beaut\u00e9.<\/p>\n
On Sol 1419, Curiosity used her camera with the longest focal, on Murray Buttes and something in background. This something is cover only a few area but tells us a lot on the scales of this site. Front of us, a piece of outcrop with multiple layers, which, like a book, talks about martian areological history. Beyond, an other outcrop. And farther, more elements, which can appear little but are hills, tall of hundred of meters. And there are a lot. Much more farther, the slopes of Aeolis Mons, covered with some sort of ripples, which are in fact deep valleys, with hundred of meters of depth. Finally, the mountain ridge, which dominate us probably from a thousand of meters, even more. Mars, this is excessiveness. And this spectacular shot is giving us all of its subtile beauty.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
