MOLA Stills for possible cover of 'Nature'

These are draft renders of Mars using MOLA data
for Topography and Viking data (true color) for the surface
texture. One of these was picked and used by Nature on the
cover of 'Insight' on 12 July 2001. The same image was
used on the cover of the Planetary Report July/August 2001.
