The Faces of Mars
NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE
This panel features different faces of Mars, sketched by enthusiastic astro-artists. Their work is based on telescopic views of the Red Planet from earlier this year, near its 2010 opposition. Mars offers the best telescopic views at opposition, when it is closest and opposite the Sun in Earth's sky. The sketches are arranged in a spiral pattern, following the planet's rotation.
