Fantastic detail! This was very good, though a lot of my memory was used up. The immense detail of the map was worth it though. Keep up the good work!

Excellent, though I ended up downloading only up to level 3 to preserve disk space.

Beautiful! I could not believe how detailed this is!
(It takes forever to download, though; each section took about 1 hour)

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you :-) I look forward to this level of detail & beyond for all objects that spacecraft have gathered such data.

Who knew black-and-white could look so good on Venus? This is also one of the highest-resolution models I've ever seen. In fact, you might even mistake one of these things with the display off as an actual photograph.
