Watch the dust storm of Mars transform the entire planet

Wow. These are beautiful pictures of progress, Mars

As the dust storm [19451945] continues to rage, NASA has broadcast "before and after" videos of the planet that shows how different it is. It is covered with a fine brown haze.

The glittering Mars (I call it a glow, it looks amazing!) Comes courtesy of the Mars Color Imager (MARCI), attached to the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO), which maps the entire planet every day.

Although the planet seems strangely thick with dust, once the dust settles, it will "form a thin film" that is only as thick as a human hair. But as the images show, the storm engulfing the planet is raging, lowering visibility and blocking light on the surface of Mars. This is a problem for our boyfriend, the Mars Opportunity rover, which we have not heard of since June 12th.

Speaking of opportunity, the storm provides NASA scientists with an opportunity to observe and understand the weather conditions of Mars. these unusual storms swallow the planet. Global dust storms occur only every six to eight years, giving NASA limited time to study them. Fortunately for us, the NASA Orbiter Series and the Curiosity rover will keep an eye on things on the ground and in the air until dust settles.
