Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This colour-coded topographic image shows a region of Mars known as Australe Scopuli, in the south polar region of the planet. The area is rich in features resulting from the arrival of spring and the retreat of the ice cap.
The image was created from data collected by ESA’s Mars Express on 2 April 2024 (orbit 25569) and is based on a digital terrain model of the region, from which the topography of the landscape can be derived. Lower parts of the surface are shown in blues and purples, while higher altitude regions are red, as indicated on the scale at the top right.
North is to the top-right. The ground resolution is approximately 16 m/pixel and the image is centred at about 265°E/85°S.
