Additional Images in Cebrenia Quadrangle

  • Map of Cebrenia. Viking II landed near Mie crater. The volcano Hecates probably has glaciers on its slopes.

  • Apsus Vallis, as seen by THEMIS. Apsus is near the Elysium volcanic system; it may have been partially formed by the action of lava.

  • Material moving down slope in Phlegra Montes, as seen by HiRISE. Movement is probably aided by water/ice.

  • Lobate Debris Apron in Phlegra Montes, as seen by HiRISE. The debris apron is probably mostly ice with a thin covering of rock debris, so it could be a source of water for future Martian colonists. Scale bar is 500 meters long.

  • Hephaestus Fossae Two Views, as seen by HiRISE. Picture on right lies to the top (north) of other picture. Fossa (geology) often form by material moving into an underground void.

  • Surface features of Lycus Sulci, as seen by HiRISE under the HiWish program.

  • Close up view of mantle, as seen by HiRISE under the HiWish program. Mantle may be composed of ice and dust.

  • Ridge and surface features near rim of Adams crater, as seen by HiRISE under HiWish program.

  • Wide view of a cliff and remains of a glacier, as seen by HiRISE under HiWish program.

  • Close-up of a cliff showing possible faults, as seen by HiRISE under HiWish program; note the rock that seems to be split by the fault. Some boulders are sitting in round holes because their ability to gather and hold heat may have melted ground ice.

  • Close-up of grooves left by a glacier, as seen by HiRISE under HiWish program. The presence of grooves suggest that it was a wet-based glacier. Moisture under the glacier may have helped Martian organisms to survive.

  • Close-up of surface, as seen by HiRISE under HiWish program.

Famous quotes containing the words additional and/or images:

    When I turned into a parent, I experienced a real and total personality change that slowly shifted back to the “normal” me, yet has not completely vanished. I believe the two levels are now superimposed, with an additional sprinkling of mortality intimations.
    Sonia Taitz (20th century)

    It was at a particular moment in the history of my own rages that I saw the Western world conditioned by the images of Marx, Darwin and Freud; and Marx, Darwin and Freud are the three most crashing bores of the Western world. The simplistic popularization of their ideas has thrust our world into a mental straitjacket from which we can only escape by the most anarchic violence.
    William Golding (b. 1911)
