Take a virtual “trip” to Mars with NASA’s 3D map. The reason for the interactive map Global CTX Mosaic on the “red planet,” comprising 110,000 images taken by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) Context Camera (CTX). So imagine something like Google Earth, but for Mars.

In a post on its website, NASA describes the tool as “the highest-resolution global image of the red planet ever produced.” The interactive map is so detailed, it covers approx 25 square meters of the surface of Mars at each pixel. In other words: If the map were to be printed, the 5.7 trillion pixel (5.7 Terapixel) image would be larger than a football field!

The map is extremely easy to use. Simply open the map in a browser like Chrome or Edge, then click to explore different areas of the globe, zooming in to see the details.

There are even tabs for clicking points of interest, such as Jezero Crater, where NASA’s Perseverance rover is currently located, and Olympus Mons, the largest volcano in the solar system.

How fast the images will “load” depends on your computing power and connection speed.

The team developed the map over a period of six years, stitching together about 110,000 images of Mars. Most of the images were placed by algorithm, but 13,000 were added to the map by the researchers themselves.
