Artists impression of the Martian surface
Artists impression of a dust storm rolling over a canyon on the planet Mars. Dust storms are frequent near the polar icecaps at certain times of the year. Seasonal changes cause sublimation of carbon dioxide locked in the caps and produce the high winds responsible for the dust storms. Produced between 1968 and 1972

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library transports us to the enigmatic world of Mars, offering an artist's impression of its intriguing surface. The image depicts a dramatic dust storm gracefully rolling over a majestic canyon, showcasing the raw power and beauty that exists on this distant planet. Mars is known for its frequent dust storms, particularly near the polar icecaps during certain times of the year. These storms are a result of seasonal changes that cause carbon dioxide locked in the caps to sublimate, generating high winds capable of stirring up immense amounts of dust. This phenomenon has fascinated scientists and astronomers for decades. The artwork was produced between 1968 and 1972, capturing our imagination long before modern technology allowed us to witness such wonders firsthand. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring curiosity about the cosmos and our relentless quest to understand worlds beyond our own. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene, we can't help but marvel at the vastness and complexity of our universe. It reminds us that there is so much more out there waiting to be discovered and explored. This print not only showcases scientific knowledge but also ignites a sense of wonder within us all – reminding us why astronomy continues to captivate both scientists and dreamers alike.
