HiPOD 6 Oct 2022: A Mesa in Chryse Planitia
The eastern flank of this mesa has already been imaged by HiRISE. The CRISM instrument has detected clays at the western end, but we lack the context for this measurement. Similar HiRISE images of mounds around Chryse Planitia have revealed stunning and complex meter and decameter-scale stratigraphy, indicative of widespread regional processes.
