Martian dust devils
Martian dust devils, artwork. Mars is a rocky desert world with no surface water. Wind erosion creates sandy deserts, and thermal heating creates localized vortices that can spin dust up into the atmosphere, a phenomenon called a dust devil. Dust storms can sometimes cover the whole planet. The rocks orange colour is due to a high content of iron oxides. The Martian atmosphere, less dense than Earth s, is mostly carbon dioxide. Surface temperatures are well below freezing. The gravity is about one third of that on Earth

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing Martian dust devils, a unique phenomenon on the rocky desert world of Mars. With no surface water, wind erosion has sculpted sandy deserts across the planet's landscape. The thermal heating creates localized vortices that give birth to these swirling dust storms known as dust devils. Occasionally, these tempests can engulf the entire planet in a veil of sand and dust. The striking orange hue of the rocks is attributed to their high iron oxide content. Unlike Earth, Mars possesses an atmosphere composed mostly of carbon dioxide and exhibits temperatures well below freezing. Additionally, its gravity is only about one-third that of our home planet. This artwork beautifully captures the essence of this arid and otherworldly environment where volcanic and igneous formations dominate the terrain. It offers us a glimpse into Mars' climatic conditions while showcasing its geological wonders with intricate detail. As we explore this illustration, we are reminded of how vast and diverse our universe truly is. From whirlwinds to mineral compositions, every element depicted here tells a story about Mars' meteorological patterns and cosmological history within our solar system.
