La Nasa partage des photos de la sonde Psyche lors de son survol de Mars

La Nasa a publié des images capturées par la sonde spatiale Psyche lors de son récent survol de Mars. Les photos ont été prises alors que la sonde utilisait la gravité de la planète pour ajuster sa trajectoire vers l'astéroïde 16 Psyche.

La sonde est passée à moins de 4 500 kilomètres de la surface martienne. Une image montre le cratère Huygens, large de 466 kilomètres et doté d'un double anneau, avec des couleurs rehaussées pour mettre en évidence les différences entre la poussière, le sable et la roche mère. Une autre capture les champs de glace d'eau brillants au pôle Sud, tandis qu'une troisième représente un croissant de Mars reflétant la lumière du soleil à travers son atmosphère alors que la sonde s'approchait de loin.
