Difference between Arcadia quadrangle and Tempe Terra

Arcadia quadrangle vs. Tempe Terra

The Arcadia quadrangle is one of a series of 30 quadrangle maps of Mars used by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Astrogeology Research Program. Tempe Terra is a heavily cratered highland region in the northern hemisphere of the planet Mars.

Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter

MOLA topographic images of the two hemispheres of Mars. This image appeared on the cover of ''Science'' magazine in May 1999. The Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA) was one of five instruments on the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) spacecraft, which operated in Mars orbit from September 1997 to November 2006.
