Appreciating Martian Topography, by Frank Melillo
Mars appears more earth-like to us than most of the other planets because we can observe its surface, atmospheric clouds and hazes and its brilliant white polar caps. The Red Planet Mars offers both the casual and serious observer many challenges and delights and the opportunity to study the martian atmosphere and surface.
Mars will reach opposition on January 16th but it can be well observed for several months thereafter, and it will remain visible for the rest of the year. This presentation will share many interesting martian features.
