NASA 2001 Mars Odyssey Thermal Emission Imaging System THEMIS acquired these images of the Earth using its visible and infrared cameras as it left the Earth.
Ver en NASA ↗This drawing of the Mars Science Laboratory mission rover, Curiosity, indicates the location of science instruments and some other tools on the car-size rover.
Ver en NASA ↗This artist concept of a proposed Mars sample return mission portrays a rocket-powered descent stage lowering a sample-retrieving rover and an ascent vehicle to the surface.
Ver en NASA ↗Decades of work preparing a miniaturized laboratory for identifying minerals on Mars have also yielded spinoff versions with diverse applications on Earth and, possibly, the moon.
Ver en NASA ↗This view of a portion of the descent stage of NASA Mars Science Laboratory shows two of the stage three spherical fuel tanks flanking the bridle device assembly.
Ver en NASA ↗In this illustration, Mars holds near-surface water ice that would be easily accessible for astronauts to dig up. The water ice was identified as part of a map using data from NASA orbiters.
Ver en NASA ↗On Nov. 1, 2016, NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter observed the impact site of Europe Schiaparelli test lander, gaining the first color view of the site since the lander Oct. 19, 2016, arrival.
Ver en NASA ↗This image of Kaiser Crater captured by NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft shows a region of the dunes with varied appearances.
Ver en NASA ↗This image captured by NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft shows the western section of the large sand ridge on the floor of Russell Crater.
Ver en NASA ↗This view combines more than 500 images taken after NASA Phoenix Mars Lander arrived on an arctic plain at 68.22 degrees north latitude, 234.25 degrees east longitude on Mars.
Ver en NASA ↗This image from NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft shows part of eastern Candor Chasma. At the bottom of the image is the steep cliff between the upper surface elevation and the depths of Candor Chasma.
Ver en NASA ↗This is a false color image of Rabe Crater captured by NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft. In this combination of filters 'blue' typically means basaltic sand. Rabe Crater is 108 km (67 miles) across.
Ver en NASA ↗This false color image from NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft crosses the entire crater and demonstrates how extensive the dunes are on the floor of Rabe Crater. In this combination of filters 'blue' typically means basaltic sand.
Ver en NASA ↗This image from NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft shows part of the caldera floor of Arsia Mons. It is not uncommon for calderas to have 'flat' floors after the final explosive eruption that empties the subsurface magma chamber.
Ver en NASA ↗This image of central Candor Chasma captured by NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft shows a surface topography called chaos. Chaos is a region of small to medium sized mesas surrounded by valleys that are usually the same elevation.
Ver en NASA ↗This image of Moreux Crater shows part of the central peak and sand dunes on the crater floor surrounding the peak. The crater rim is at the bottom right of this image from NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft.
Ver en NASA ↗This is a false color image of Rabe Crater captured by NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft. In this combination of filters 'blue' typically means basaltic sand. Rabe Crater is 108 km (67 miles) across.
Ver en NASA ↗Dunes cover the majority of this image of Rabe Crater. This view captured by NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft shows the slip faces are illuminated more than the longer side.
Ver en NASA ↗Candor Chasma is one of the largest canyons that make up Valles Marineris. This image captured by NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft shows part of western Candor and the erosion of a large mesa.
Ver en NASA ↗This image of Moreux Crater from NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft shows part of the central peak and fields of sand dunes on the crater floor surrounding the peak. This image illustrates the abundance of sand dunes located on the floor of the crater.
Ver en NASA ↗The bottom half of this image of central Candor Chasma from NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft shows a surface topography called chaos. Chaos is a region of small to medium sized mesas surrounded by valleys that are usually the same elevation.
Ver en NASA ↗Dunes cover the majority of this image of Rabe Crater. This view captured by NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft shows the slip faces are illuminated more than the longer side.
Ver en NASA ↗This image of Moreux Crater shows part of the multitude of sand dunes that are found on the floor of the crater. The central peak of the crater is at the top left corner of this image from NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft.
