Visible Imaging by THEMIS
- THEMIS will acquire visible-light images with 20 meters per
    pixel resolution.
 
- There are 5 visible wavelength bands available, and the option 
    exists to choose which of the 5 are used for any given image.  
    Thus, these 20 m/pixel images can be monochrome (black-and-white) 
    or color.
 
- Up to 15,000 visible images will obtained; each will cover
    an area 20 km by 20 km on the surface of Mars.
 
- The visible-wavelength camera portion of THEMIS is being provided by 
    
    Malin Space Science Systems of San Diego, California.
