Color Properties at the Mars InSight Landing Site
The color properties observed at the InSight landing site by the lander cameras are spectral mixtures of two source materials: gray‐black rocky material with chromaticity values of x = 0.32, y = 0.32 (standard deviations of σx = 0.02 and σy = 0.03) and ...
