MARS RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER HIRISE IMAGES
April 6, 2016

o Cubism in the Western Rim of Holden Crater
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_044495_1535

  Where the crater rim is well illuminated, we can see blocks 
  of material with different colors, representing diverse rock types.

o Faulted Layers in Collapse Pits
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_044497_1730

  What formed these layers, and what caused them to collapse into pits?

o An East Watershed for Jezero Crater
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_044517_1990

  Jezero Crater is candidate future landing site that contains sediments 
  deposited by at least three ancient rivers.

o A Boulder Festival in Masursky Crater

  Why are there so many boulder trails here?
