Google Mars - Definition
With Google Mars, in collaboration with NASA researchers at Arizona State University, you can see some of the most detailed scientific maps of Mars ever made. The map of Mars, published by Percival Lowell in 1895, was the result of many years spent carefully studying the Red Planet Mars through his telescope. By using Google Mars, you can now do the same, and experience the Red Planet through your web browser.
