EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Science Photo Library takes us on a mesmerizing journey to the mysterious red planet, Mars. The image, captured by Viking Orbiter 2, unveils a breathtaking crescent view of Mars with an extraordinary spectacle unfolding in its upper center. Here, we witness a fascinating cloud plume composed of water ice being forcefully blown off the summit of the majestic volcano Ascreaus Mons. As our eyes wander through this cosmic masterpiece, another intriguing element comes into focus at the bottom of the frame - part of the seasonal south polar ice cap. This ethereal sight reminds us that even in such distant and alien worlds like Mars, nature's cycles continue to shape and transform landscapes. The sheer beauty and complexity showcased in this photograph ignite our curiosity about planetary science and astronomy. It serves as a reminder that there is so much more waiting to be discovered beyond our own blue planet. With every detail meticulously captured by Viking Orbiter 2's lens, this image not only offers an awe-inspiring visual experience but also contributes invaluable knowledge to cosmology research. Thanks to Science Photo Library for preserving and sharing this remarkable piece of scientific history with us all.
