THEMIS Image of the Day, December 26, 2016. Today’s false color image shows part of Danielson Crater. The dark blue features at the bottom of the image are sand dunes on the floor of the crater.
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.
