Sulci Gordii in 3D
Sulci Gordii in 3D
Data from the nadir channel and one stereo channel of the High Resolution Stereo Camera on ESA's Mars Express have been combined to produce this anaglyph 3D image of Sulci Gordii that can be viewed using stereoscopic glasses with red–green or red–blue filters. Sulci Gordii is an aureole deposit resulting from the dramatic collapse of the flanks of Olympus Mons in its distant past. The image was created from data acquired on 23 January 2013 (orbit 11,531), with a ground resolution of about 31 metres per pixel. Sulci Gordii lies at approximately 17 degrees north and 234 degrees east, about 200 kilometres east of Olympus Mons.
