THEMIS Image of the Day, June 28, 2016. Today’s false color image shows part of the floor of Vernal Crater. Dark blue in this band configuration often indicates sand or basaltic materials. 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.
