Von Kármán Crater
|
The Chinese "Chang'E-4" (CE-4) spacecraft achieved the first successful soft landing on the Floor of the Von Kármán Impact Crater located in the Nort-Eastern portion of the South Pole-Aitken (SPA) Basin on the Moon (Far-Side). Here, through analysis and processing of the dual-channel Lunar Penetrating Radar (LPR) data, the shallow regolith structure and deep Geological Strata below the Landing Site are exposed. The high-frequency data (CH-2, 500 MHz) show that the Von Kármán Crater underwent remodeling because of ejecta from multiple craters within a thickness of about 40 meters.
Nota: questa Galleria è dedicata agli Appassionati dell'Esplorazione Spaziale (ivi: Lunare) e non intende essere un "tributo" alla Cina ed alla sua Agenzia di Bandiera. Il motivo è semplice: i risultati delle Missioni Spaziali Cinesi sono sempre avvolti in coltri di fitta nebbia, le immagini sono difficili da reperire e quelle "(diciamo) pubbliche" sono scadenti e sostanzialmente insignificanti. Probabilmente anche la "Propaganda" ha dei limiti...palesi.
Note: this Gallery is dedicated to the Space (here: Lunar) Exploration "lovers" and does not mean at all to be a "tribute" whatsoever to the Republic of China and its Space Agency (CSA). The reason of this premise is very simple: the results of the Missions carried out by the CSA are always wrapped in a thick cloud of fog; the images (frames) are hard to find (unless the CSA releases them "willingly"...) and the ones, let's say, "public" are shoddy and meaningless. We therefore believe that even the "propaganda" must have its own undisguised limits...
