Northern Plains Textures

Northern Plains Textures

Textures of the Northern Plains
There is still a dearth of HiRISE images in this particular region in Acidalia Planitia, to the south of Kunowsky Crater. This observation includes features that are bright and dark in daytime infrared, and our interest is to sample surface textures. Of note is the large depression (a crater, or maybe a dome?) in an otherwise flat terrain.
