Two
views of Olympus Mons, shown as topography draped over a Viking
image mosaic. MOLA's regional topography has shown that this volcano
sits off to the west of the main Tharsis rise rather than on its
western flank. The topography also clearly shows the relationship
between the volcano's scarp and massive aureole deposit that was
produced by flank collapse. The vertical exaggeration is 10:1.
