The CNR-IFN Padova, responsible for the development of the optical part and calibration of the STC, plays an important role on STC. "The stereocamera is an instrument formed by two channels – in practice two eyes – that by observing an object from two different angles allows us to reconstruct the ‘third dimension’," explains researcher Vania Da Deppo. "The STC instrument, created by the company Leonardo S.pA. of Florence, will allow us to determine the height of the mountains and the depth of the craters of Mercury".
