sorae – Would you like it as a wallpaper?Vertical image showing the surface of Mars from north to south released
This is the “vertical image of Mars” that sorae introduced in an article on September 20, 2019. It was created by processing data taken on June 17, 2019 by the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Mars Explorer Mars Express.
This image is a vertical image that is easy to set as wallpaper on your smartphone, and a high-resolution version can be downloaded from the ESA website.downloadIt is possible to do so.

Mars Express has been orbiting Mars since 2003, and 2023 will be 20 years since the mission began. (*Launched in June 2003, successfully inserted into Mars orbit at the end of December 2003)
