Soggetto: the history of the study of Mars Anno: 1999 Notizie: In 1999 North Korea released a souvenir sheet depicting people and events in the history of the study of Mars. The sheet includes two objects which may represent meteoroids blasted off the surface of Mars by giant impacts, or instead may represent the two moons of Mars, Phobos and Deimos. Phobos and Deimos are probably two asteroids Mars has captured. The sheet also portrays several famous astronomers: Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo, Newton, and Halley. Various rockets and space probes also appear against the background of the cratered surface of Mars. What looks like an old Korean astronomical tower appears at the left. |
