False-colour radar map of the east hemisphere of Venus. The image is centered on the equator at 90 degrees east longitude,with the north pole at the top. The dominant radar-bright feature at centre is the continent Aphrodite Terra. The vast,circular Artemi Chasma canyon is at bottom right. The radar-bright feature in the northern hemisphere is the upland Tellus Regio,separated from Aphrodite Terra by the dark,lowland Niobe Planitia. The data for this image were gathered by the Magellan radar-mapping spacecraft. Areas of missing Magellan data have been filled in with lower-resolution Pioneer-Venus data. The colour was suggested by Soviet photographic data | |
