Mars Visions
The images sent back from Mars by the Spirit and Opportunity Rovers are truly inspiring. As we look at these images, and look forward to human missions to Mars in the future, we can take further inspiration from the visions of Mars in this gallery: paintings and digital artwork produced by members of the International Association of Astronomical Artists (IAAA).
SPECIAL: For the 12th Annual Mars Society Conference, July 30 - August 2, 2009, we prepared a Slide Show of selected images by IAAA members and fellows.(CAUTION: This is a large video file in Windows Media format; do not try to view it over a dial-up connection. Even with broadband, it will take a minute or two to load.)
The following thumbnail images link to visions of Mars produced by IAAA members. (CAUTION: the works displayed are copyrighted. Please do not copy
