"Jaw-Dropping Flyover of Mars' 'Labyrinth of Night' Takes You on an Epic Journey"

TL;DR Summary
The European Space Agency has released a stunning video showcasing the vastness of Mars' Valles Marineris, the Red Planet's equivalent of Earth's Grand Canyon. The video provides breathtaking views of the canyon's Noctis Labyrinthus, a labyrinth of night spanning 740 miles. The footage was created using detailed stereo images taken by ESA's Mars Express orbiter and existing topographic data. The canyon's valleys measure up to 18.6 miles across and 3.7 miles deep, making it larger than the Grand Canyon. Scientists believe the canyon was formed by tectonic fractures and possibly influenced by water billions of years ago.
