Zooming in on Mars: New high-resolution images reveal Red Planet's stunning terrain | Mail Online: "It has long been a planet of wonder, leaving early astronomers to speculate about advanced alien civilisations.
Now modern-day star-gazers can enjoy stunning new close-up images of Mars' diverse surface after they were released by NASA today.
The photographs were taken with a telephoto lens which can focus on objects the size of a beach ball from more than 180 miles away.
They zoom in on a range of terrains – from volcanic cones and cratered planes to wind-swept dunes to crusts of ice."
