Proctor Crater - False Color

The THEMIS VIS camera contains 5 filters. The data from different filters can be combined in multiple ways to create a false color image. These false color images may reveal subtle variations of the surface not easily identified in a single band image. Today's false color image shows part of Proctor Crater in Noachis Terra. Orbit Number: 59659 Latitude: -47.6015 Longitude: 29.5774 Instrument: VIS Captured: 2015-05-27 00:55 https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA21675
