A Ridge in Claritas Fossae
From HiWish: “This image covers a ridge in Claritas Fossae that seems to be superposed on the older fractures and that is a part of a more numerous assemblage of similarly looking edifices within this region. We propose that this ridge might be volcanic in origin and by using the HiRISE, we can observe details that might support or disprove such claim.”
