Dark Striations Near Holmes Crater On Mars
Dark Striations Near Holmes Crater On Mars
NASA/UA/HiRISE
Context Camera imagery reveals dark streaks extending east of minor crater rims within and around Holmes Crater.
This observation can give us some insight on local mass wasting processes (like landslides) as well as details about the stratigraphy of the terrain. Additionally, disturbances to dark sands may characterize windblown processes.
