The orbiter also accurately mapped the topography of Mars, revealing, among other things, that the distance from the lowest spot on the surface of the planet to the highest exceeds 18 miles [29 km], compared with just over 12 miles [19 km] for the earth.
Lisaks tegi jaam Marsi täpse topograafilise kaardi, millest muu hulgas ilmnes, et vahemaa selle planeedi madalamast punktist kõrgemani on rohkem kui 29 kilomeetrit, võrrelduna meie planeedi 19 kilomeetriga.
