HiPOD 31 May 2023: Not Jenny from the Block

This stunning image shows contact between a blocky deposit and underlying material in Candor Chasma, part of the Valles Marineris canyon system. With a high resolution image of this deposit, we can try to determine the mineralogy of blocks and the underlying geological unit. There is evidence of wind and water erosion, as well as significant gravity-driven landslides in Candor.
