Mars UTC

CM1: 295.50°

CLat: -13.10°

Description

Seeing started out great for Mars. Clouds weren't present unlike the previous night.

Notes:

  • The entire atmosphere of the planet is nearly opaque from the dust storm.
  • Hellas Basin is just passed the CM and appears to be filled with dust.
  • The part of the SPC east of the CM appears to be covered by a thicker layer of dust than the area west of it.
