3D view (anaglyph image) of part of Nereidum Montes
Anaglyph images can be created using data acquired by the nadir channel (the field of view of which is oriented aligned perpendicular to the surface of Mars) of the High Resolution Stereo Camera operated by DLR on board ESA’s Mars Express spacecraft and one of the four oblique-viewing stereo channels. When viewed with red-blue or red-green glasses, these images give a three-dimensional view of the landscape. North is to the right of the image. The high image resolution clearly captures the diverse topography of this region. The state of erosion makes it possible to determine the ages of the impact craters, the drainage channels and small valleys on the mountain slopes, which were created by water flowing over the surface.
