In recent years Virtual Reality technologies have enabled astronomers to recreate and explore three dimensional structures of the Universe for scientific purposes. Mars, due to its scientific interest,has been the focal point of numerous research projects using these technologies, however, none of these virtual reality tools have been developed specifically for entertainment purposes.The focus of this paper is to present MarsVR, as an entertainment research project that educates people on the topography and orography of the planet Mars from the perspective of popular science. Some projects have been designed MarsVR for entertainment purposes and include the latest advances in 3D real time applications. However, these applications have underestimated the relevant data necessary for simulating the planet Mars as an interactive virtual environment.
