Thu Jul 2, 2009 at 15:25 UTC
The following new images taken by the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft are now available:
- Martian Zambonis?
This image of Mars' south polar area shows an amazing series of elliptical rings. Could these have been made by a Zamboni on Mars driving around and around on the ice? No, of course not! But the answer in some ways more fun. - Gullies on Southwest Slope of Ring Trough in Noachis Terra
Geologically young gullies are a prime target for the HiRISE camera. Gullies are located in a variety of settings and are found all over Mars. - Layering and Faulting in Melas Chasma Layered Deposits
- Light and Intermediate Toned Material Near Morava Valles
- Light Toned Rugged Intercrater Area in Viking Images 637A36 and 635A94
- Faulting in South Polar Layered Deposits
