Headline: NASA Captures Incredible Image Of Giant Volcano Poking Through Clouds On Mars
Caption: Captured by NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey orbiter, the stunning panoramic photo shows Arsia Mons rising above early morning clouds. It's the first time a Martian volcano has been photographed on the horizon - like Earth seen from space. The image reveals cloud layers and seasonal changes in Mars' atmosphere. Arsia Mons stands 12 miles tall - twice the height of Mauna Loa on Earth. The THEMIS camera detects water ice and studies Mars' moons, aiding future human missions.
