Looks like there is some dust in the air, but still some interesting detail.

    Mars has always interested me. This has been the background of one of my monitors for a very long time [you'll probably need to open it in a new tab to see the full thing]:

    While it looks like there is liquid on the surface, that is actually dust storms in the thin atmosphere.

    I hate to admit it, but I might actually agree with Neil deGrasse Tyson...what we need now is a reckless curiosity.
