Bill Dunford created this stunning view of the South Pole from Mars Express infrared/green/blue data. QUOTE We have some fresh of views the fourth planet. I've been wandering through the landscapes found in these new images, because Mars always rewards visitors, even as it teases them by hinting at things just unseen. And because, like a kaleidoscope, the beauties of the place are often fresh and surprising every time they're seen in a new light.
These latest shots come from Europe's Mars Express mission, which has added a brand-new batch of data to its online archive. The orbit that Mars Express traces swings it over the poles, which affords spectacular views of the ice caps. -------------------- Curiosity rover panoramas: http://www.facebook.com/CuriosityRoverPanoramas
