    OSIRIS View of Mars

    Date: 24 Feb 2007
    Satellite: Rosetta
    Copyright: ESA/MPS for OSIRIS Team, MPS/UPD/LAM/IAA/RSSD/INTA/UPM/DASP/IDA

    This composite image of Mars was generated using images acquired on 24 February at 18:28 UT, during Rosetta's swing-by of Mars. The images were taken by the OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera at near-infrared, green and near-ultraviolet wavelengths.

    At the time, Rosetta was at a distance of about 240 000 km, and only 7.5 hours away from closest approach. The image resolution is about 5 km/pixel.
