HiPOD 10 Oct 23: Lava-Crater Interaction in Elysium Planitia

This observation truly shows the ravages of time: we see here an interaction of crater topography with ancient lava, which can be informative for analysis. This footprint is deliberately biased to the west because the lower eastern rim should be more interesting. The InSight mission landed in Elysium Planitia in 2018.
