MPS: „Regen“ aus Elektronen erzeugt Merkurs Polarlichter
Beim ihrem ersten Vorbeiflug am Merkur fing die Sonde BepiColombo einzigartige Messdaten ein. Sie helfen, die Röntgenlicht-Polarlichter des Planeten zu verstehen. Eine Pressemitteilung des Max-Planck-Instituts für Sonnensystemforschung. #MPS #merkur #BepiColombo

ESA-Sonde BepiColombo: Selfies vom dritten Vorbeiflug am Merkur
Die Weltraumsonde BepiColombo muss mehrfach am Merkur abbremsen, bevor sie in einen Orbit eintreten kann. Nun hat das dritte Manöver am Zielplaneten geklappt.

Although Mercury is on average 10 times closer to Earth than Jupiter is, it takes just as long to get to the innermost planet as it does to reach the gas giant. That's because a Mercury-bound spacecraft has to constantly brake against the powerful gravitational pull of the sun.

Why is Beagle Rupes named after a famous ship?
It turns out that all Rupes (escarpments) on Mercury are named after ships of famous explorers.
Here is a partial list of other Rubes and the origin of their names.

Here is some info on the Beagle Rupes escarpment from https://planetarynames.wr.usgs.gov/Feature/14390.
The image shows other craters and Rupes in the neighborhood of the Beagle Rupes.
Rupes is the Latin word for 'cliff'. It is used in planetary geology to refer to escarpments on other worlds

The 2nd part of the movie features the 600 km-long curved escarpment known as Beagle Rupes and the 218 km-wide Manley Crater, newly named for the Jamaican artist Edna Manley.
Beagle Rupes, named after the after the HMS Beagle, was discovered in 2008 by MESSENGER. The scarp is a surface manifestation of a thrust fault, which formed when the planet contracted as its interior cooled.
Rupes is the Latin word for 'cliff'.

BepiColombo stuurt mooie foto’s van Mercurius naar de Aarde
De Europese ruimtesonde BepiColombo maakte op maandag 19 juni zijn derde scheervlucht langs zijn doelplaneet Mercurius en onthulde een oppervlak vol met kraters, waaronder een die net een naam heeft gekregen.
