Begins with Mars' position in the solar system. Zooms in to show Mars' moons Phobos & Deimos. Valles Marineris comes in to view at 0:34 and is right in the the center as we zoom in. As the planet rotates further, the 3 volcanoes Arsia, Pavonis and Ascraeus Mons take center stage at 0:43 and then finally Olympus Mons. then we zoom in for a closer looks at Phobos and Deimos. Both of these moons are actually captured asteroids. video was made using Celestia

Great stuff! I'm a bit of an astronomy nut, and this video along with the Saturn and Jupiter video show so many awesome angles and perspectives. Thanks!
