Steep Southern Coprates Chasma Wall Slopes

Steep Southern Coprates Chasma Wall Slopes

Steep and Stunning
Even after so many years in orbit, there are still plenty of places on Mars that need the HiRISE treatment. This image was requested because there is little coverage along this portion of Coprates’ south wall. With this observation, we can fill in the gaps and get unique coverage. We can also look for colorful slopes of mafic materials.
