解説(安達)
 Pujic氏の画像は、今日も火星の様子を詳細に示している。南極冠は順調に
縮小してる様子がとらえられている。2003年の時と同じようにドーナツ状
に見えている。2003年にあまり目立たなかったヘスペリア(Hesperia;240W,
-20)が今シーズンは明るくなって見えているようで、2001年の時の様子に
近い見え方だ。北半球ではエリシウム(Elysium;215W,+25)が白く写っており、
高地の部分に白雲の出ている様子が記録されている。北極地方には雲はみられ
ない。(repoted by 1 observer)

The image of Pujic shows the appearance of Mars in detail today. As
for SPC, the appearance that reduces well is caught. It is seen the
doughnut just like time of 2003. Too unremarkable Hesperia seems to
lighten in this season in 2003. This is a way near the appearance in
2001 to see. Elysium (215W,+25) is white and it is reflected in the
northern hemisphere. The appearance of which white clouds have
appearance to the part in the high ground is recorded. The cloud is
not seen in an Arctic area. (repoted by 1 observer)

Here are two Mars images. They form a nice stereo pair (focus your eyes beyond the screen rather than in front of it). I took the later image during slightly poorer seeing. The bright patch at the 7 o'clock position is Elysium and the Hyblaeus extension.
