Forbidden zone for Hirise project
      #869894 - 04/20/07 07:31 AM

Hello,
there is a "forbidden zone" on Mars accurately avoided by Hirise project. It is a zone full of strange features (photographed by MOC at low res), which resemble vegetation and lakes .

Here's a map that explains the situation (dots are location of photographs taken by the Hirise resolution camera):

Hmmmmmm
What exactly is the Hirise project?
I suppose the colored dots are the trees?

The HiRISE Camera is the latest to photograph Mars. It takes very detailed images of the Martian surface. It takes me about 15 minutes to download one of the pix . The online image viewer. gives a pretty good view.

Hi, the Hirise project take very high res photos of the Mars surface (home page: http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/).
Color dots are zones that were photographed. You can see that there are almost no pictures in the "forbidden zone". This zone contains a number of strange "formations", similar to forests and lakes (!), and it seems that people at Hirise accurately avoid it .

if you want to give a look to these unusual features on Mars, you can visit: http://mmmgroup.altervista.org/e-trees.html
where there are medium-res photos taken by another NASA probe, named MOC.

Yes, there is something strange about those locations. But still...

... so far, most evidence for sustained wet conditions on Mars is limited to the planet's earliest history, the HiRISE scientists say. While water certainly flowed over the planet later in its history, it may have flowed only in short-lived, or catastrophic events.
