Mars Orbiter Mission latest Mars Images..!!


Spectacular 3D view of Arsia Mons, a huge volcano on Mars


Images of Eos Chaos region of Mars taken by Mars color camera on board ISRO's Mars Orbiter Mission on 5-2-2015 at a spatial resolution of 220 m from an altitude of 4403 km. Eos Chaos is located at eastern part of Valles Marineris region. Grabens/Fracture patterns at the edges of Valles Marineris are clearly seen at this resolution. Images at this coarse resolution are useful for understanding geological processes at regional scale.
