| Summary: | LPI slide set converted to a PowerPoint set by the staff of the Spacecraft Planetary Imaging Facility, Cornell University An overview of Mars, including its volcanoes, the Valles Marineris canyon system, features formed by running water, the SNC meteorites, and its two small moons, Phobos and Deimos. This is the second edition, revised in 1997 to include recent images from Mars Pathfinder and the Hubble Space Telescope. compiled by Walter S. Kiefer, Allan H. Treiman and Stephen M.
