HiRISE image: Warm-season slope flows
Dark, seasonal flows emanate from bedrock exposures at Palikir Crater on Mars in this image from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera on NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. These flows, now documented at several places on Mars, form and … Continue reading
