In the north-eastern part of the scene, there is a mountain composed of bright, layered material. This mountain is approximately 2500 metres high, 59 kilometres long and up to 23 kilometres wide.


 
Map of the section of the surface of Mars showing context and the region covered by the Juventae Chasma images. The scenes show the region of Lunae Planum at approximately 5° South and 297° East.


 
This 3D anaglyph view of Juventae Chasma was taken by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board ESA’s Mars Express spacecraft.

The HRSC obtained this image on 26 March 2004 during orbit 243 with a ground resolution of approximately 23.4 metres per pixel. The scene shows the region of Lunae Planum, at approximately 5° South and 297° East. North is to the left.
