Description

Uplifted Rocks in a Crater Center

This image shows the central pit of a large impact crater in the Southern highlands of Mars. We see varied colors, suggesting that a range of rock types are present. Studies of these rocks from far below the surface help us to understand ancient Mars as well as the processes that have altered the rocks after they formed and were buried.
