Onboard of the European Space Agency's (ESA) Mars Express spacecraft is an instrument called the Visual Monitoring Camera - a small optical telescope initially used to monitor the separate of the Beagle lander from Mars Express when Mars Express first reached Mars. This instrument has now been turned on again as a "webcam" of the Mars surface, which you can watch from here. Enjoy!
