Several Over-Lapping Fans with Interesting Features

  • msc386 by msc386

    In this image, there are over-lapping fans on the right and top-center; with a smaller fan almost in at center as shown in the imagery. The anomaly
    at lower left is probably a fan, but since the image was cropped, I couldn't be certain, so it was marked as an "interesting feature". Given the width of
    the fans and the density of the material deposited, I would speculate that the wind-speed here was slow but steady, indicating an area of moderate
    to heavy (at times) meteorological activity.

    Same msc, click on HiRISE at the lower right border of your image (faint letters) and greyscale will show you the larger area from which your image is taken. You will see how 'busy' the venting is, but looking at the 'bigger picture' helps a lot in understanding what's going on. #Pete
