Coprates Chasma and Coprates Catena

Images taken by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board ESA's Mars Express spacecraft, show Coprates Chasma, a major trough in the Valles Marineris canyon system. The HRSC obtained these images during orbit 449 with a ground resolution of approximately 48 metres per pixel.

The scenes show the region containing the sections of Coprates Chasma and Coprates Catena, over an area centred at about 13.5º South and 300º East, roughly in the centre of the Valles Marineris canyon system. Read more and view images.
