MARS RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER HIRISE IMAGES

o Crater Slopes: The Power of a Repeat Image	
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_037125_1315

  Repeat coverage actually serves a special purpose, such 
  as detecting seasonal changes.

o Gullies in Liu Hsin Crater	
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_038896_1255

  By comparing to gullies that are just 20 kilometers away, 
  we may be able to determine the factors that affect their size.

o Southeast Rim of Hale Crater	
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_038904_1430

  The central peak of Hale Crater is a common target for recurring 
  slope lineae, but an image of the rim might help us see if they 
  occur elsewhere.

o Triple-Crater in Elysium Planitia	
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_039147_1940

  This image shows a triple impact crater that probably formed when a 
  binary--or even triple--asteroid struck the surface.

Information about the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter is 
online at http://www.nasa.gov/mro. The mission is 
managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division 
of the California Institute of Technology, for the NASA 
Science Mission Directorate, Washington, D.C. Lockheed 
Martin Space Systems, of Denver, is the prime contractor 
and built the spacecraft. HiRISE is operated by the 
University of Arizona. Ball Aerospace and Technologies 
Corp., of Boulder, Colo., built the HiRISE instrument.
