    • Description

      Mars Express, ESA's first mission to Mars, has been producing stunning results since its first instrument was switched on. The significance of even this very first data became apparent at the press conference on 23 January 2004, where it was revealed that the OMEGA instrument had confirmed the presence of water ice on Mars. Ths information was confirmed by another instrument on Mars Express, the PFS, a high-resolution spectrometer of unprecedent accuracy. Spectacular 3D images of Mars surface produced by another instrument, the High resolution stereocamera, were also shown at the event. Seven minutes A-roll with split audio (english commentary/international sound) adn is complimented by a B -roll with clean international sound
