| Although Mars is not a geologically active planet today, many interesting surface features were created when it was active in the past. In fact, the planet is home to some of the most dramatic landforms in the solar system. The largest volcano in the solar system, Olympus Mons, is located on Mars, as well as the longest and deepest known canyon system, Valles Marineris. New images of the Cydonia region, home of the controversial "face on Mars", have been acquired by the Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft. Explore some amazing landmarks on the Martian surface! |
