Sequence Of Target Of Opportunity
Component Photographs 6151 6152 6153 Subject This mosaic, which was constructed from the three photographs listed above, presents an oblique view of crater 308, approximately 5 S, 179 E. The scale of photograph 6152 is approximately 27 percent greater than that of 6151 and 6153 also, the tilt angle of 6152 is approximately 65 to the southeast whereas, that of 6151 and 6153 is approximately 55 to the south. These two differences account for the discontinuity on the crater rim between photographs...

Fig Parallax Geometry
This resulting equation, called the parallax equation, can then be used to calculate station elevations of stations visible on the two photographs of a stereogram, provided one has knowledge of the distance between the two stations from which the photographs were taken, the elevation of the aircraft or spacecraft which took the pictures, the focal length of the camera used, and some means for measuring the parallax from the photographs. Now that the basic principle of parallax has been...
Tranquillity Base
Subject Shown here is Crater 308, an old crater, probably Pre-Eratosthenian, with an eroded rim and evidence of slumping at the base of the wall. The southern portion is shown see also figure 33 . Stereo Pair Frame Nos. 5590 5591-- Figure 5-B Subject This is a small fresh bright Copernican crater on the northeast rim of crater 297. Crater 297's diameter is approximately 65 nautical miles reference 3 . Subject Shown here are two impact craters about 50 n.mi. north-northwest of crater 292's...
