Mars from Earth
Last month, Mars and Earth were right next to each other in their orbits. This event, formally called opposition, was highlighted by a very bright Mars for skywatchers and a good photo opportunity for the Hubble Space Telescope. Hubble snapped the highest resolution picture of Mars ever obtained from Earth. Visible on Mars are ice caps over the poles in white, regions covered with sand and gravel in dark brown and orange, and large dust storms in light orange.
