PIX4615845: March - Opportunity - Cratere Victoria 09 - 2006 - March: Victoria crater seen from rover Opportunity - Panorama obtained by the rover Opportunity on 28 and 29 September 2006. The Rover Opportunity landed on Mars in the Meridiani Planum region on January 25, 2004. Opportunity reached the Victoria crater on September 27, 2006 after travelling more than 9 km on the surface of Mars. The Victoria crater is about 800 metres wide and its south face on the left is about 6 metres above ground. This image taken by the panoramic camera on the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity shows the view of Victoria Crater from Duck Bay. Opportunity reached Victoria Crater on Sol 951 (September 27, 2006) after traversing 9.28 kilometers (5.77 miles) since her landing site at Eagle Crater. Victoria Crater is roughly 800 meters (one - half mile) wide - - about five times wider than Endurance Crater, and 40 times as wide as Eagle crater. The south face of the 6 meter (20 foot) tall layered Cape Verde promontory can be seen in the left side of the inner crater wall, about 50 meters (about 165 feet) away from the rover at the time of the imaging. The north face of the 15 meter (50 foot) tall stack of layered rocks called Cabo Frio can be seen on the right side of the inner crater wall.

PIX4616152: March: Hebes Chasma - Mars: Hebes Chasma - Hebes Chasma is a basin of almost 8000 m deep located in the northern part of Valles Marineris, the great Martian canyon. At the centre of this depression is a stratified plateau that constitutes sedimentary deposits. Image obtained by the Mars Express probe in 2005. View of Hebes Chasma obtained by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on ESA's Mars Express spacecraft. Hebes Chasma is an enclosed trough, almost 8000 m deep, in Valles Marineris, the Grand Canyon of Mars. A mesa - like mountain is located in the center of Hebes Chasma. It reaches 8000 meters above the graben floor and extends almost to the top of the surrounding plain. The mountain is made up by numerous stacked rock layers. The layering may consists of remnants of the older plateau, lake sediments, wind blown sediments or volcanic rock. The rock layers were exposed by erosional processes. Newest data acquired by the OMEGA spectrometer on - board Mars Express revealed hydratized (water - bearing) minerals like gypsum in some areas of Hebes Chasma. What ever kind of processes led to the formation of the Interior Layered Deposits: at least some water once existed in Hebes Chasma. Hebes Chasma is located at approximately 1* south and 282* east. The HRSC obtained image data on 16 September 2005 with a ground resolution of approximately 15 m/pixel / Bridgeman Images

The large impact crater on the left of the image measures 20 km in diameter. The image covering an area of about 150 square km was obtained by the Mars Express probe on 28 December 2007. This image of Hephaestus Fossae was obtained by Esa's Mars Express orbiter on 28 December 2007. The region is dotted with craters and channel systems and lies at about 21* North and 126* East on the Red Planet. Named after the Greek god of fire, Hephaestus Fossae extends for more than 600 km on the western flank of Elysium Mons in the Utopia Planitia region. The surface is mostly smooth, and is covered by several small impact craters measuring 800 to 2800 m in diameter. Smaller craters are scattered across the entire region. The left side of the image shows a large impact crater measuring 20 km in diameter. Covering an area of approximately 150 sq km, a crater of this size on Earth could harbour cities such as Bonn or Kiel. In contrast to the smaller craters, it shows a blanket of ejecta with flow forms surrounding the rim / Bridgeman Images

PIX4616489: Martian dunes in Spring - March: Frost - covered dunes in crater - Detail on dunes in a crater located near the north pole of Mars. Clearly, areas covered with carbon dioxide gel appear on this image obtained by the HIRISE camera of the Mars Reconnaissance probe orbiter on January 1, 2010. HIRISE is a 50 cm telescope that observes visible and near infrared Dunes are often found on crater floors. In the winter time at high northern latitudes the terrain is covered by carbon dioxide ice (dry ice). In the spring as this seasonal ice evaporates many unusual features unique to Mars are visible. On the floor of this crater where there are no dunes, the ice forms an uninterrupted layer. On the dunes however, dark streaks form as surface material from below the ice is mobilized and deposited on top of the ice. In some cases this mobile material probably slides down the steep face of the dune, while in other cases it may be literally blown out in a process of gas release similar to removing a cork from a champagne bottle.

TEC4594675: L'Eglise de La Madeleine, Place de la Madeleine, Paris 8th arrondissement. Its construction lasted nearly a century. Subject to political aleas, it was finally Napoleon (1769-1821) who entrusted Pierre Vignon (1763-1828) with the task of building an ancient temple dedicated to his military glory. Only the Restoration restored its religious vocation to the Church of Sainte Marie Madeleine in 1842, architect Charles Girault (1851-1932). Photography 1999. / Bridgeman Images

TEC4594756: Avenue des Champs Elysees, Paris 8th arrondissement. It was Jean Baptiste (Jean-Baptiste) Colbert (1619-1683) who had Andre Le Notre (1613-1700) opened in 1667 an avenue starting from the Tuileries to reach a hill, today called L'Etoile. There's nothing left from that time. Only nineteenth century witnesses remain on the Champs Elysees. Bernard Huet was asked in 1994 to bring back the Champs Elysees in order to restore its prestige to the avenue: the cars were driven from the allees, an underground car park created, the floor covered with grey granite slabs. The promenade aspect was reinforced by the planting of a second row of plane trees and new constraints were defined for signs and windows. / Bridgeman Images

PIX4616602: Sol de Mars seen by the Phoenix probe - Mars: Phoenix landing site - Image obtained by the Phoenix probe shortly after its successful landing on the Mars surface on May 25, 2008. The probe landed on a vast plain north of the planet in the Vastitas Borealis region. This image, one of the first captured by Nasa's Phoenix Mars Lander, shows the vast plains of the northern polar region of Mars. The flat landscape is strewn with tiny pebbles and shows polygonal cracking, a pattern seen widely in Martian high latitudes and also observed in permafrost terrains on Earth. The polygonal cracking is believed to have resulted from seasonal freezing and thawing of surface ice. Phoenix touched down on the Red Planet at 4:53 p.m. Pacific Time (7:53 p.m. Eastern Time), May 25, 2008, in an arctic region called Vastitas Borealis, at 68 degrees north latitude, 234 degrees east longitude.
