Mars Patterns

Seasonal crater wall streaks, Hale Crater, Mars (credie: HiRise)

Mars has beautifully landscapes in all shapes, forms, and colors. Their details continue being exposed in photographs captured by the HiRise camera on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. Here are three examples including dune fields, faulted ridges, and frozen ground polygons. Each photograph would be 'suitable for framing' on a gallery wall anywhere. WHB
