This image of the Martian north polar ice cap shows layers of water ice and dust for the first time in perspective view. Here we see cliffs which are almost 2 kilometres high, and the dark material in the caldera-like structures and dune fields could be volcanic ash.

Rather cool looking overall - some of those scenes could be earth, were it not for the rather unusual combination of the red dust and white ice.
