Mars Has Ice-Filled Craters and Twitterati Wants To Go Ice-Skating! View Stunning Images Released By ESA
The image is based on five image strips captured by the High-Resolution Stereo Camera on board the European Space Agency’s Mars Express spacecraft.
Want to go ice-skating? What about heading to Mars? This may be a joke now but a latest picture from Mars will make you wish it was true. A crater near the Noth Pole in Mars- the Korolev Crater is filled with a mound of water ice. The ice sheet is about 60 kilometres across and about 2 kilometres thick. The ice sheet in Mars stays and doesn't melt even during the six-month-long northern summer on Mars. It is said that the crater traps a layer of cold air that prevents ice from melting.

According to media reports, the image is based on five image strips captured by the High-Resolution Stereo Camera on board the European Space Agency’s Mars Express spacecraft. This spacecraft has been in orbit around Mars since 2003. The strips have been processed in a way to show how the crater may look like with naked eyes.
