Google provides Mars with high resolution images

The huge search page Google will show users the quality of images taken around the Red planet, with a higher resolution than before.

The images of this Red planet revolved around Mars by a NASA satellite and then sent to Earth.

In 2009, NASA and Google reached an agreement on how everyone in the world could admire the first images of Mars from Google Earth. However, until now, the image quality of this planet has low resolution.

Google is updating most of the Martian surface with images provided by the Context Camera (CTX) placed on NASA spy satellites, taking one pixel every 20 minutes.

"Google Mars was previously taken from the HiRISE camera to produce images below 12in / pixel," Wired said.

Google Mars is easily accessible from within the Google Earth application by clicking on the orange Saturn icon at the top of the main window, then selecting 'Mars' from the drop-down menu.

Google Earth users can enlarge images taken from the Gale crater with 3D images.

On his blog, scientist Ryan Anderson, a member of ChemCam team under Curiosity, said: "Users can now easily access and use planetary data. Although Google Earth is still not enough to meet. For some scientific research purposes, it is the best and fastest way I know for anyone interested and interested in learning about Mars. "
