Details:
I photographed Mars from 0h30m to 1h50m UT
in 14 sequences of 2000 frames each.
I then put them into an animation of 5 frames showing the rotation for a period of 1h 20m.
The tiny northern polar icecap has continued to shrink and is seen at the bottom.
The orographic clouds over the Elysium vulcanoes and the Hellas region are very persistent as they are in place since more than a month.
Mars was at an altitude of 23° and the size is now 14".
