Channels near Reull Vallis On Mars

The objective of this observation is to examine several small channels that seem to be entering a low area.

This may be evidence that the ground was quite water-rich. Reull Vallis starts in Promethei Terra and empties into Hellas Planitia and is 1,051 kilometers (653 miles) long. Reull is the Gaelic word for “planet.”
