"NASA's MAVEN Mission Reveals Mind-Blowing Ultraviolet Images of Mars"

NASA's MAVEN mission has captured two stunning ultraviolet images of Mars, providing scientists with new insights into the planet's atmosphere and surface features. The images, taken at different points along Mars' orbit, reveal details such as atmospheric ozone appearing purple, clouds and hazes appearing white or blue, and the surface appearing tan or green. The first image shows Mars during the southern hemisphere's summer season, while the second image depicts the northern hemisphere during winter. MAVEN's goal is to explore Mars' upper atmosphere and understand the loss of its atmosphere to space, providing valuable information about the planet's history and habitability.
