Spectral Diversity of Exposed Materials at Meridiani Planum, Mars, via Pancam Aboard the Mars Exploration Rover, Opportunity
(2010)Previous analyses of multispectral data of exposed materials at Meridiani Planum from the Mars Exploration Rover, Opportunity, reported on sampling Pancam spectra for large areas of surface type exposures. In those analyses, ...
