This image presents three-dimensional data from the atomic force microscope onboard NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander. The image shows the details of one of the substrates on the microscope station's sample wheel. It will be used as an aid for interpreting later images that will show the shapes of miniscule Martian dirt particles. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/University of Arizona/University of Neuchatel
