This data set consists of up to six alternative versions of 49 contrast enhanced far-encounter photographs of Mars. These versions were produced on 70-mm negative film by digitally processing the original raw analog data. The procedure divided the 256-level gray scale into three groups (the dark, light, and polar cap data number ranges) and stretched one range. Each specialized version was produced from one of these gray-scale stretches. Video reconstruction and rectification processes, as in data sets -01C and -01D, were applied to obtain the final versions.
