Impact crater on Mars. Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) image of a newly formed impact crater on Mars. This one occurred within the dense secondary crater field of Corinto Crater. The new crater and its ejecta have distinctive colour patterns. Once the colours have faded in a few decades, this new crater will still be distinctive compared to the secondary craters by having a deeper cavity compared to its diameter. Image data obtained with the HiRISE (High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment) camera. Image published in 2018. | |
