Get closer to the surface with these stunning images of the surface of Mars.
This image pack contains 3 UHD 8K images from HiRISE (High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment) onboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, NASA. HiRISE is the most powerful camera ever sent to another planet, letting us see the surface of Mars at 30 cm/pixel.
Each image has been refined using Topaz Labs state of the art image upscaler Gigapixel AI to further refine the image for high quality printing at 300dpi. Further refinements are made using Topaz Labs Sharpener AI and Denoiser AI tools.
Martian Internet then meticulously scours the image by eye to ensure that interpolation is smooth and there are no artefacts.

Cerberus Fossae Slopes
The fossae have long been proposed to be very tectonically active. Our goal is to look for new rockfalls that might indicate current seismic shaking.A note: Mars does not have tectonic plates, but the activity is mostly due to the pressure of the material that can cause a shifting of the terrain.Image is less than 5 km (3 mi) across and is 277 km (172 mi) above the surface.
Danielson Crater
This image shows a classic example of Martian sedimentary rock in Danielson Crater. The many layers of rock are regularly spaced, forming steps; this implies a series of strong cap layers alternating with weaker layers. At small scale, much of the rock is heavily fractured. Because the fractured pieces neatly fit together, this occurred after the deposit turned to rock. It is not known with certainty how these rocks formed, but the regularity of the layers suggests a process that repeated many times, perhaps on annual or longer timescales. This suggests that the layers did not accumulate in a series of random events, as layers of crater ejecta might. Enhanced color image is less than 1 km (under a mile) top to bottom and is 276 km (171 mi) above the surface.
Chryse Planitia
Possible Olivine-Rich Terrain: Olivine is a greenish-colored silicate mineral common in many mafic igneous rocks. On Mars, olivine has been detected in Nili Fossae, Ganges Chasma (in Valles Marineris) and even in Martian meteorites. Studying possible areas of olivine can help to understand the weathering rates of silicates in the harsh Martian environment. Image is less than 1 km (.62 mi) top to bottom, 293 km above the surface.
