Beautiful images are only available on Mars

Mars is a dead, lifeless planet. However, images recently released by NASA's Mars orbit (MRO) show that the planet has an impressive terrain that is not inferior to Earth.

These are the best images taken by the high-resolution scientific imaging device (HiRise) integrated on the Mars Orbital Exploration (MRO), showing a different Mars with many types of terrain. Beautiful and vibrant colors.

This year is the 11th year the MRO ship orbits Mars. So far, it has completed more than 45,000 orbit rounds and captured more than 216,000 photos. The images below do not have the typical orange red color of Mars, because it has been processed in color so that scientists can identify dusty areas.

Complex types of terrain on Mars still have not been properly explained, but many researchers speculate that it could be a sign of the existence of an ocean in the past.

Many areas create very impressive images when viewed from above, confusing for scientists. But when observing and exploring by self-propelled ships or close-up images, they are really just normal terrain forms.

Like Earth and the Moon, Mars is a place full of craters left behind by collisions with meteorites. This is a rather special crater, the meteorite split into two before crashing into Mars, creating two circular holes next to each other.

The sand dunes stretch up to 30 km at Russell's impact crater at the southern hemisphere of Mars. Now that it is winter, carbon dioxide is frozen and creates a translucent layer on the sand dunes, which will melt in summer.

One of the typical geological forms of Mars is Valles Marineris , a large canyon system that makes the Grand Canyon in the United States small.

NASA's Mars Orbit (MRO) probe is still very active and becomes a communication channel between ground probes and scientists on Earth. Thus, in the future we will also admire many more marvels of this neighbor's planet.
