HiRISE: Deposits along the floor of Coprates Catena

Posted on March 25, 2019 by rburnham

ESP_054715_1650Deposits along the floor of Coprates Catena. The rest of this depression has very interesting layered deposits so we’re interested to see if there could be some here too. Coprates Catena is roughly in the center of the Valles Marineris canyon system.
