Overview
The asset combines an optimized mesh with 16K physically accurate equirectangular textures, seamlessly mapped without polar distortion. Designed for film, games, VR, AR, and fulldome environments. Ready to import and render immediately, with all materials embedded. Includes a volumetric atmosphere for ray traced engines and, in Unity, a custom atmospheric shader that simulates sunsets using color gradients and Fresnel effects without requiring additional setup.
Scientific Background
This 3D representation of Mars is based on scientific data about its surface composition and atmospheric behavior. The physically based textures capture iron oxide rich terrains, dust storm traces, polar deposits, and thin cloud formations. Multiple cloud layers are provided to reflect observed water ice and carbon dioxide cloud patterns from NASA missions such as Viking, Mars Global Surveyor, and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.
