THE PAST MARS : Noachian & Hesperian

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary :
- New texture of Noachian -4.100 billion years.........(just below)
- Adding the lavas in the cracks and the craters.......(down below)
- First finale texture of Noachian........................(down below)

Here is the first images of the ancient surface of Mars in the Noachian era.
Its are the planet Mars there is dated -4.100 billion years. The all surface, even the northern hemisphere, is entirely very craters. In this image bellow, the crater is grayish the young giant crater Utopia (future Utopia Planitia), which was created by the large meteorite or well the planetesimals.
In that time, the planet did not appear actual red and there is probably similar to Earth just at the end of planetary formation. The ocean liquid training has not yet formed, it will appear in a hundred or a few tens of millions of years when the atmosphere will become more dense. The volcanoes and volcanic domes are not present either, as well as craters Hellas, Isidis and Argyre, nor polar ice caps. The planet Mars is flat all.
For to realize the images, I maked the texture the actual map Mars. I changed the surface detail what removes volcanic domes, Mariner Valles, rivers, ... and what adds a lot of craters, the giant crater and a few mines degassing to form the atmosphere, and ... therefore I have not yet finished the final texture to find few things more realistic (clouds, lava and other small details of the surface, etc.).
The crater Huygens by exemple. At the bottom of this crater, there was not Hellas Planitia which would have hit -3.9 billion years.
The next, I will also several textures certain periods of time Noachian and Hesperien (-3.9 billion yaers, -3.7 billion, following) geologically to seek somethings.
