Layered Terrain Near Mawrth Valles Phyllosilicates (High-Def-3D - false colors; credits: DR M. Faccin)

...Un'incredibile ricostruzione in High-Def-3D (realizzata dal Dr Faccin) di uno dei paesaggi più intriganti e suggestivi di Marte: Mawrth Vallis.
Indossate gli occhialini e poi guardate: Vi sembrerà di "volare" su Marte, a 284 Km di quota, aggrappati al nostro "Amico" Mars Reconnaisance Orbiter!
