Mars UTC
CM1: 0.80°
CLat: -19.80°
Description
I was expecting partly cloudy skies, but it cleared for a couple hours so I took out the C8 to get a quick shot of Mars.
Notes:
- Syrtis Major and Hellas Basin is setting
- Sinus Sabaeus and Meridiani are near the central meridian.
- A band of orographic clouds has stretched around the planet in the southern hemisphere.
