About this work

This unnamed, approximately 30-kilometer diameter crater, formed in the Southern highlands of Mars. This image from NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter shows regions of geologic diversity within, making this an interesting spot for scientists to study how different Martian processes interact with each other. Gullies, or channels formed by fluids such as water or lava, cut into the rim and sides of this crater.
