The Tharsis region of Mars is a large regional bulge roughly the size of Europe. Like a bulge, it towers over the surrounding areas by almost five kilometers.

Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Die Region Tharsis auf dem Mars ist eine große regionale Aufwölbung, die etwa die Größe Europas umfasst. Wie eine Beule überragt sie um fast fünf Kilometer die umliegenden Gebiete. Aus Tharsis erheben sich von Nordosten nach Südwesten auf einer Strecke von über tausend Kilometern drei markante Schildvulkane, Arsia Mons, Pavonis Mons und Ascraeus Mons – die Tharsis Montes, die allesamt über zehn Kilometer hoch sind. Ascraeus Mons ist der höchste dieser drei Schildvulkane. Mit einem Durchmesser von etwa 480 Kilometern und 18 Kilometern Höhe ist es der zweithöchste Berg auf dem Mars. Die ESA-Sonde Mars Express überflog den Vulkan am 5. April 2022 während seines 24045. Orbits und scannte das umrahmte Gebiet. Dem rechteckigen Ausschnitt sind die hier gezeigten Szenen entnommen.

English: The Tharsis region of Mars is a large regional bulge roughly the size of Europe. Like a bulge, it towers over the surrounding areas by almost five kilometers. Three prominent shield volcanoes, Arsia Mons, Pavonis Mons and Ascraeus Mons, rise from northeast to southwest over a distance of more than a thousand kilometers from Tharsis - the Tharsis Montes, all of which are more than ten kilometers high. Ascraeus Mons is the tallest of these three shield volcanoes. With a diameter of about 480 kilometers and 18 kilometers high, it is the second highest mountain on Mars. ESA's Mars Express probe flew over the volcano on April 5, 2022 during its 24045th orbit and scanned the boxed area. The scenes shown here are taken from the rectangular section.
