Description: Introduction: The Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft has completed three Mars years in nearly circular polar orbit at a nominal altitude of 400 km. The Mars crust is at least an order of magnitude more intensely magnetized than that of the Earth [1], and intriuging in both its global distribution and geometric properties [2,3,4,5]. We present here a new map of the magnetic field with an order of magnitude increased sensitivity to crustal magnetization. The map is assembled from 〉 2 full years of MGS night-side observations. The increased sensitivity and spatial resolution afforded by this new map invites geologic interpretation akin to that here-to-for reserved for aeromagnetic and ship surveys on Earth.
