I love love love this app. BUT! it would even better! IF, there was a way to simulate how the Martian atmosphere deteriorated over time. You have how the water left the surface, and you can run the time forward, but there is no atmosphere .... Sucks but I still like it.

I always found learning about Mars a bit like reading a latin text book. Until now that is. The neat 3D graphics with amazing coloring lets you navigate your way around this planet in minutes. I love some of the spooky imagery you can create by adjusting the color bar, very cool!! I was also very impressed after getting Elevation Earth and how this quickly shows how the geology of Mars is so different to Earth's. They have also added lots of new features to this version. Also really love being able to put water back onto Mars and build my own scenarios. Olympus Mons is so tall!!! Keep up the great work guys!

This is such a fun app I wish apps like this were around when I was in high school back in the late 1990's. I could only hope that educational apps like this in the future the user could control a satellite and explore the planets in real time. Well done this is the start of something great!
