Sometimes, we acquire an image for the simple reason of getting either more coverage of an area, and/or to complete a mosaic of a particular spot.
Such is the case for this observation near the center of a massive, eroded and unnamed impact crater in Arabia Terra. It’s located to the west of the much larger Cassini and Pasteur craters.
