Explore Mars in Stunning Detail with NASA's Interactive 3D Map.

NASA has released the most detailed 3D map of Mars ever made, created by the Bruce Murray Laboratory for Planetary Visualization at the California Institute of Technology. The interactive Global CTX Mosaic of Mars map is a mosaic created from images taken by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, covering some 270 square feet of the Martian surface in each pixel. The map is available to the public and is exceptionally easy to use, with tabs to click that will bring you to points of interest, like Jezero Crater, where NASA's Perseverance rover is currently working, and Olympus Mons, the largest volcano in the solar system.
