Anaglyph images can be generated using data acquired by the nadir channel of the High Resolution Stereo Camera on ESA's Mars Express orbiter, which is directed perpendicular to the surface of Mars, and one of the four obliquely viewing stereo channels. When using red-blue or red-green glasses, they provide a three-dimensional view of the landscape. North is on the right in the image. In this view, the differences in altitude between the valley floors and the surrounding landscape are clearly visible.
