ExoMars images Korolev crater

Satellite: Trace Gas Orbiter
Depicts: Korolev crater

The ExoMars Colour and Stereo Surface Imaging System, CaSSIS, captured this view of the rim of Korolev crater (73.3°N/165.9°E) on 15 April 2018. The image is a composite of three images in different colours that were taken almost simultaneously. They were then assembled to produce this colour view. The original image has a nominal scale of 5.08 m/pixel and was re-projected at a resolution of 4.6 m/pixel to create the final version. The dimensions are therefore about 10 × 40 km.  The image was taken with a ground-track velocity of 2.90 km/s. The solar incidence angle was 76.6° at a local solar time of 07:14:11. North is just off-centre to the upper left.
