This enhanced image of North Peak (one of the Twin Peaks) is the result of combining 25 nearly-identical images taken by the IMP camera, using a technique called super-resolution developed at NASA Ames Information Sciences Division by Peter Cheeseman, Bob Kanefsky, Robin Hanson, and John Stutz.

A typical input image, scaled up by a factor of five with the pixels interpolated so it's blurry rather than blocky.

The input image expanded normally, demonstrating the coarseness of the pixels.
