Mars atlas was created by Frank Ryan
Does anyone have a link to a site where
one can see the exact side of Mars that
Was facing you at a given date & time?
I'd like to confirm some features I observed & imaged
Last night.
Thanks.

Good post Frank - topical - I captured an image of Mars on 13th December and can't make head or tail of the features.

Had (all be it, brief) look at recommended links and am still none the wiser.

If you get joy from any of these would you mind posting what worked for you.

I have found Mars Previewer II from the S&T site good, 3mB download and free. See www.skyandtelescope.com/resources/softwa...4921.html?page=2&c=y

MArs previewer2 is very good, one worth having on the PC.
