Default Any latest news on mars, like new photos, new secrets of mars etc.

Just like the previous photos, for example "face on mars", statue of a girl on mars etc. I heard that the mars express has just sent very nice information and a three dimensional map of the mars. where is that? (means where that be seen here on earth).

Since last two months in the local newspaper the front page is full of photo prints about mars, especially face on mars, the statue on mars.

If you have these photos of mars, then why don't you show here, please do not hide, please show us.

Please.

ESA Mars Express: ESA presents Mars in 3D

Mars is about to come into 3D focus as never before, thanks to the data from the Mars Express High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC). A new high-resolution Digital Terrain Model data set that has just been released onto the Internet, will allow researchers to obtain new information about the Red Planet in 3D.
Planetary Society Weblog: Finding images from Mars

Quote:
Arizona State University maintains a forms-based and graphical interface data browser not only for data from its main Mars camera, THEMIS on Mars Odyssey, but also for data from four other cameras: the Viking orbiters, MOC on Mars Global Surveyor, and the Context Imager and HiRISE camera on Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.
[...]
Mars Express has its own wonderful and easy-to-use data browser for the HRSC data set, which has added functionality: it can drape Mars images over digital terrain models derived from those images to produce 3D views.

very much thankful 01101001, for the links above. I think Arizona states University is making a mars missions very greatful, like phoenix, and other related missions are looking very much popular in the space exploration. The links are very nice and too much informative.

Mars is, as always, red hot! (Except that it's not physically hot, only hot in the slang sense...)
