Original Note:
Incorrect. This is a composite from 1980 Viking images. The original image (not this low res compressed jpg) showed 965 metres (0.6miles) per pixel, and there have been clearer since. The current clearest image, from MRO 2023, has amazing 5 metres p.p. https://www.caltech.edu/about/news/scientists-unveil-a-57-terapixel-global-image-of-mars https://www.science.org/content/article/dark-side-online-space-disinformation
