False-color image of the north polar region of Mars in summer, showing its composition as
inferred by the OMEGA/Mars Express visible and near-infrared imager. The cap is made of
water ice (blue) mixed with mineral grains (shades of gray), with dark zones of ice-free
minerals within which vast areas of gypsum (red), a hydrated sulfate, have been discovered.
