HiPOD: A Channel and Crater in Hesperia Planum

The objective of this observation is to examine a channel and an impact crater. The channel is narrow, and it maintains its width for a long distance and may be related to volcanism. Hesperia Planum is a broad lava plain in the southern highlands of Mars with a moderate amount of cratering indicating an intermediate geological age in Martian history.
