Recently, NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter has made a new batch of photos.
These images of Martian surface were taken with the help of powerful HiRISE camera, having a 0.5 meter reflecting telescope, the largest of any deep space mission, which allows it to take pictures with resolutions up to 0.3 m, resolving objects about a meter across, or the size of a beachball..
