A Truly,

'out of this world' photograph, 

photograph credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech/ASU. NASA released the infrared image as part of a collection that celebrates the 20th year in service for the orbiter, of which this is one, the pictures were taken between 2002 and 2004 by Odyssey’s THEMIS imager up this wind-sculpted sea of dark dunes that covers an area as big as Texas at Mars’ northern polar cap. In this enhanced-colour image, cooler areas have in bluer tints, while warmer features are depicted in yellows and oranges, from the article:

THEMIS has sent back more than 1 million images since it began circling Mars. The images and maps it’s produced highlight the presence of hazards, such as topographic features and boulders, but they also help ensure the safety of future astronauts by showing the location of resources such as water ice. This aids the Mars science community and NASA in deciding where to send landers and rovers – including the Perseverance rover, which touched down on Feb. 18, 2021.

as I mentioned a truly out of this world photograph!
