 …. Sooo many sleepless night….. but sooo worth it! Mars is good at the moment, really REALLY good! To see the Martian volcanoes you need a lot of stars to align. You need Mars to be near to Earth -this only gets REALLY good about every 15 years. You then need not just a clear sky, but a really stable atmosphere AND a good telescope. Then you need the right side of Mars to be pointing towards Earth. This only happens for about 2 weeks per month. Given that Mars is only really close to Earth for about 3 months (and only one of those is really good), this means you really don’t get many opportunities to see the Martian volcanoes!
A crazy amount went into this video, but Im really happy with the results. Hope you enjoyed it :-D

Thanks for sharing! I appreciate the effort to sync and overlay the different views and renderings together to show both camera view and digital views. Its really cool to be able to do, and verify, something for yourself like that. Glad you got the opportunity to see the volcanoes!
