Coordinates of the Martian landscape in Utah, USA

Utah is a really amazing place, with so many different landscapes that one minute you're on Earth, the next you're on Mars. Off-road is risky, must do a good job, download the offline map in advance, drive a four-wheel drive that can cross country, it is best to have a companion to go together.

🌠 The Space Needle:
Space Needle base coordinates: 38°23'37.7"N 110°49'56.4"W

From Highway 24 directly cut to the roadside dirt road, there is no intersection, I cut from the position of 38.369642, -110.839929, about 15 minutes to drive the unpaved road, you can see that there are obvious stone coordinates on the ground to prevent you from going forward. A lot of people park their cars right here, and if you're worried about getting stuck, you can park here and walk to the bottom of the Space Needle, about half an hour or so. The whole valley floor is very soft, there is a risk of sinking.

When I saw the Space Needle, I was shocked!

In a dark land, standing alone, stood a needle. There was a dead silence, a faint glow reflected from the metal surface of the needle, which seemed particularly abrupt and lonely in the endless darkness. The needle, like a ray of hope in the darkness, and like the last straw in despair, struck the heart of everyone who gazed at it.

Drive to Hanksville and stay at the Whispering Sands Motel, which also has campsites and space capsules nearby.

🌠 Lunar surface:
38.4498423, -110.8409049

If you're passing through Hanksville on the Grand Loop, don't forget to check out the moon's surface, which is beautiful at sunset.
The whole cross-country section, sand ➕ dirt road. It'll take about half an hour to get to the ledge. The scenery is not the word "amazing", it's best to wait until sunset, the landscape is very well stratified to photograph. I went there at noon, and the photos were relatively flat, completely reflecting the actual terrain.
Also, the road to Moon Overlook Vista Point is all dirt, and the weather has a big impact on the road conditions. It's possible that a single rain could impassable a paved road. Keep your eyes on the road as you drive in. Don't rush.

🌠 Purple Bubble:
38.414529, -110.784509

It is also to see inst planting grass, can only say that the picture must be p color, otherwise it is relatively light. The 20-minute drive here is a Mars base, clearly marked and known as private property, so try not to approach it. Drive a little farther, you can walk on Danxia landform. It's very impressive, and the aerial images are very good.

🌠 Martian landscape: Factory Butte
38.4369252, -110.9134906

Walking to find out how small they are, the whole cross-country section, very shocking.

🌠 Mushroom colony: Toadstool Hoodoos Trail


The trail is on the side of the highway. It's so sparsely populated, you can walk there in about half an hour. It's funny how the mushrooms grow.
There are many more interesting landscapes in Utah that you are welcome to explore!

🌠 Colored bubbles:
38.4142002, -110.7853449


This is the last of three places I've never seen before in one day, a Mars-like landscape. Don't come here without a drone! Make sure you bring a drone! Make sure you bring a drone! Say important things three times!

This place is in Utah, it's called Colored Bubbles, and Google the Mars Desert research Station (MDRS), near this Mars research base, and they all look like this, there's actually a Mars research institute there! but that area is not open to the public at present. We met my grandfather who has done research there for more than 20 years, and he was very friendly to tell us that the area suitable for taking photos is beautiful, the area is open to the outside world, you can fly drones, and the coordinate point is the most accurate and beautiful bubble!

Driving route: We spent most of the day walking around the moon cliffs, Space Needle and colorful bubbles, which are about equal to no cell phone signal, remember to download Google offline Maps in advance.
