Is there an actual image of the mars surface somewhere? I poked around the repo but could not find one.

I think this is where the app loads the images from a server

Yes, we are hosting an WMTS server which serves images corresponding to a user's current coordinates and zoom level. One image of the whole surface in full-res would be about 150 GB.
