-Juventae Chasma is an enormous (250 km X 100 km) box canyon peripheral to the Valles Marineris trough system.
-Juventae is the product of a unique merger of a Martian chaotic terrain depression and an extensional (tectonic) chasm.
-Within the chasm are four discrete bodies of layered, light-toned rocks of sedimentary origin, and a sulfate deposit mountain 2500 meters from the floor of the Chasma to the summit, stretching over 59 km in length.
-The light-toned mounds depicted in the film are now known to consist mostly of salts of sulfuric acid that were formed when water had evaporated in the distant martian past.
-The darker material seen in the film mostly represents wind-blown debris that have formed into various sizes of dunes that can clearly be seen from space.
These Films pay homage to the magnificent display of the little-known beauty of the Martian terrain. Find yourself immersed inside the emotional embrace of Mars from the comfort of your home. If you love landscapes, Geology, Earth Science, Mountainous Terrains, Planetary Sciences and moving cinematic music, you will love these films. Hope you enjoy and thank you for watching. Support this channel so I can keep bringing you more of my work.
