Mars from 10,900 Miles Away on November 26, 2018
This is an image of Mars from 10,900 miles away, captured on November 26, 2018 by NASA’s satellite Mars Cube One (MarCO). In the image you can see the reddish-brown sphere of mars soaking up the sun, all of which is framed by components of the satellite. Besides for simply being a beautiful image, I thought this was relevant considering it was captured the day NASA landed their most recent Mars rover InSight. InSight itself will surely bring some amazing remote sensing images in the near future!
