HiPOD: Mesa Stratigraphy at Terby Crater

A 2 to 3 kilometer sequence of stratigraphy exposed across three mesas in the northeastern portion of Terby Crater captures a diverse range of sedimentary rock types that include deposition across all of the three major Martian geologic eras: Noachian, Hesperian and Amazonian. These epochs date back billions of years.
