Acrylic Blox : Venus radar map, North Pole
Mounted Prints from Science Photo Library
Venus radar map, North Pole
Venus radar map, centred on the Venusian North Pole. The map is colour-coded for altitude, going from low altitude (purple) through blue, green, yellow and orange to high altitude (red). The scale is at lower right. Most of this map was created using radar data gathered by the Magellan spacecraft from 1990 to 1994. Gaps in the coverage were filled in using data from earlier missions and Earth-based radar telescopes. This map is part of a set of six radar maps of Venus: see images R334/184 to R344/189

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed radar map of Venus, specifically centered on its North Pole. The map is an exquisite display of colors representing different altitudes, ranging from low altitude depicted in purple to high altitude illustrated in red. At the lower right corner, a scale provides a reference for measurement. The majority of this remarkable map was constructed using radar data collected by the Magellan spacecraft during its mission from 1990 to 1994. To ensure comprehensive coverage, any gaps were filled using information obtained from previous missions and Earth-based radar telescopes. This particular map is part of a set comprising six radar maps that offer valuable insights into the topography and geological features of Venus. Its circular mosaic design beautifully captures the planet's unique characteristics and aids in understanding its geographical composition. As we explore this image further, it becomes evident that mountains and valleys are scattered across Venus' surface. The creation of such intricate maps has been made possible through advanced radar mapping techniques employed by probes like the Magellan spacecraft. By studying these maps, scientists gain invaluable knowledge about our neighboring planet's northern hemisphere and polar region. With its vibrant colors and meticulous detailing, this stunning print serves as a testament to humanity's ongoing exploration of our solar system while highlighting the wonders hidden within Venus' mysterious landscape.
