Explanation:
This Stereo image pair of craters on
on Mercury was
produced using data from NASA's robot explorer
Mariner 10 which performed three close flybys of
the Sun's closest companion,
two in 1974 and one in 1975.
However, the spacecraft was not equipped with a Stereo camera!
Instead,
the Stereo pair was created using two images of the same region each
recorded from a slightly different angle.
The image on the left was actually taken during the first flyby,
the one on the right during the second.
A crater within a crater is visible at the upper left, the outer one
is about 70 miles in diameter.
The embedded craters themselves are within the
230 mile wide Dostoevsky crater - a segment of Dostoevsky's
rim runs through the lower half of the image.
To get the 3D Stereo effect, your left eye should see only the left image
and your right eye only the right one.
(Try placing one edge of a piece of paper on the screen between the
pictures and touching your nose to the other edge while viewing.)
