Odyssey Over Mars
The Mars Odyssey spacecraft, using its THEMIS camera, captured this infrared view of Terra Sirenum. The 32-kilometer-wide image shows a 300-kilometer journey across the Martian surface. It reveals the floor and rim of Koval'sky Crater, along with lava flows and smaller impact craters. This detailed mapping helps scientists understand Mars' geological history.
