Data

As data are collected from Earth and surrounding bodies in the Solar System, we like to do all we can to make them easily accessible and useable for the needs of our science partners, science community, and for the public.

Geologic map of the Mare Tyrrhenum Quadrangle of Mars Geologic map of the Mare Tyrrhenum Quadrangle of Mars

The Mare Tyrrhenum quadrangle is bounded by lat 0 degrees and 30 degrees S. and long 225 degrees W. and 270 degrees W. The central part of the quadrangle is dominated by Tyrrhena Patera, a large shield volcano, and associated low-albedo ridged plains that probably are basaltic lava flows similar to the lunar maria. The western, northern, and eastern margins of the quadrangle are located...

Geologic map of the Cebrenia Quadrangle of Mars Geologic map of the Cebrenia Quadrangle of Mars

Most of the Cebrenia quadrangle (lat 30 degrees to 65 degrees N., long 180 degrees to 240 degrees W.) is in the circumpolar plains of Mars. Craters from an early episode of intense bombardment have been largely obliterated by later volcanism, tectonism, erosion and sedimentation by wind and water, and by circumpolar glacial and periglacial processes. South of 47 degrees N. the plains are...

Map showing lava flows in the southwest part of the Phoenicis Lacus Quadrangle of Mars Map showing lava flows in the southwest part of the Phoenicis Lacus Quadrangle of Mars

The Systematic mapping of lava flow units in the Tharsis region has been compiled into a series of 16 maps at 1:2,000,000 scale. This work provides information on the sources and areal extent of the lava flows, on their eruptive sequences and relative ages, and on relations between the flows and geologic structure in the largest, most active tectonic and volcanic province on Mars. Some...

Map showing lava flows in the southeast part of the Diacria Quadrangle of Mars Map showing lava flows in the southeast part of the Diacria Quadrangle of Mars

The Systematic mapping of lava flow units in the Tharsis region has been compiled into a series of 16 maps at 1:2,000,000 scale. This work provides information on the sources and areal extent of the lava flows, on their eruptive sequences and relative ages, and on relations between the flows and geologic structure in the largest, most active tectonic and volcanic province on Mars.

Geologic map of science study area 8, Apollinaris Patera region of Mars Geologic map of science study area 8, Apollinaris Patera region of Mars

Volcanoes are among the most imposing and geologically interesting features on Mars. Nearly 60 percent of the planets surface is covered by volcanic rocks dating from the Early Noachian to Late Amazonian Epochs (Tanaka and others, 1988). This map of the volcano Apollinaris Patera and surrounding area is one of a series of large-scale (1:500,000) geologic maps initiated by the National...

Geologic Map of the MTM-85000 Quadrangle, Planum Australe Region of Mars Geologic Map of the MTM-85000 Quadrangle, Planum Australe Region of Mars

The area shown on this map includes layered polar deposits and residual polar ice, as well as some exposures of older terrain. Howard and others (1982) noted that an area (at lat 84.8 S., long 356 W.) near a 23-km diameter impact crater (Plaut and others, 1988) appears to have undergone recent deposition, as evidenced by the partial burial of secondary craters. Herkenhoff and Murray...

Gully Monitoring Sites and New Flows on Mars Observed in HiRISE Data Gully Monitoring Sites and New Flows on Mars Observed in HiRISE Data

This dataset consists of data from monitoring of gullies on Mars using the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE). Table 1 provides a list of monitored locations, which are HiRISE image series covering Martian gullies with a time baseline of at least 4000 Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) orbits. Images from these locations were blink-compared at 1 m/pix to search for...

Photogrammetrically Controlled, Equirectangular Galileo Image Mosaics of Europa Photogrammetrically Controlled, Equirectangular Galileo Image Mosaics of Europa

The Solid State Imager (SSI) on NASA's Galileo spacecraft acquired more than 500 images of Jupiter's moon, Europa, providing the only moderate- to high-resolution images of the moon's surface. Images were acquired as observation sequences during each orbit that targeted the moon. Each of these observation sequences consists of between 1 and 19 images acquired close in time, that...
