Water-filled Gusev crater, Mars
Water-filled Gusev crater, Mars. Artwork of the Gusev crater (large indentation, mid-centre), as seen millions of years ago when Gusev was filled with water and mud. At the top right, Ma adim Vallis, the river to Gusev, is visible. Gusev has a diameter of 90 kilometres and is thought to have been formed three to four billion years ago by an asteroid. On January 3 2004, NASAs Mars rover Spirit landed in the now arid crater. The rover has been able to grind away the surface cover on rocks found in the crater and in March 2004, found evidence of minerals crystallised out of water

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the mesmerizing Water-filled Gusev crater on Mars, offering a glimpse into its ancient past. Millions of years ago, this large indentation was brimming with water and mud, creating a striking contrast against the barren Martian landscape we know today. The artwork also highlights Ma'adim Vallis, the river that once flowed into Gusev crater from the top right corner. Spanning an impressive diameter of 90 kilometers, Gusev crater is believed to have formed billions of years ago due to an asteroid impact. On January 3,2004, NASA's Mars rover Spirit touched down in this now desolate expanse. Over time, Spirit has diligently scraped away at the surface cover on rocks within the crater's vicinity. In March 2004, an incredible discovery unfolded as evidence of minerals crystallized out of water was found by Spirit. This groundbreaking revelation provided invaluable insights into Mars' geological history and further fueled our fascination with extraterrestrial life possibilities. Through this stunning illustration created by Science Photo Library, we are reminded of both the vastness and mysteries that lie beyond our planet Earth. It serves as a testament to humanity's unyielding curiosity about space exploration and our relentless pursuit to unravel the secrets hidden within celestial bodies like Mars.
