Summary

Description
English: Collapse features--maybe from underground volcanic activity. Picture shows the remains of upper, dark layer that is sitting on a lower, light-toned layer. Such light-toned materials often contain water-bearing minerals. This bright material appears to have collected in relative topographic low areas, perhaps bright materials carried and deposited by water in Mars’ past. The concentric troughs may be collapse features as seen elsewhere nearby. This image was named HiRISE Picture of the Day for July 11, 2024.
