Pressure on the surface od Mars
Hello all !
I just landed on Hellas Planitia on Mars. The terrain should be about 5-7 km below the medium surface height - and it was on surface MFD. But the reason why I picked up this area was pressure that should be about 1,2 kPa. It will be easier to fly and easier landing on the surface. But it was around 600 Pa like on medium Mars height just like in old orbiter version where the surface was completely flat. Will it be fixed ? Please ^^ : )
The pressure and temp could also vary in day/night or season cycle. But I heard temp right now does nothing and it will cost effort so ... I'm not even asking about this.
PS Great Job I'm with you guys from 2004 and I never dreamed about that 3D surface and such resolution will be ever implemented. Many thanks !!!
