Thanks to the American Geophysical Union's Celebrate 100 grants program, ASU and the "Walk on Mars" map are headed to Washington, D.C.! We will be displaying the map on the National Mall in front of the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum. For more details, see ASU's announcement at: https://sese.asu.edu/about/news/article/3769 and AGU's announcement at https://centennial.agu.org/celebrate-100-grant-winners/.


Stay tuned for more details as we finalize our plans!

The 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft and the Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) have been acquiring infrared images of Mars for more than 16 years. The best-quality images from the mission have been compiled into a global mosaic at 100 m/pixel resolution and printed on a walkable basketball-court-sized vinyl mat to spread awareness and excitement about Mars exploration!
