Features of Coprates Chasma (Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga/Lunar Explorer Italia/Italian Planetary Foundation)

In this VIS image, taken by the NASA - Mars Odyssey Orbiter on March, 11, 2013 and during its 49.862nd orbit around the Red Planet, we can see that a large Landslide Deposit fills a portion of the Floor of Coprates Chasma: a huge and extremely long Canyon located the Coprates Quadrangle of Mars, at 13,4° South Latitude and 61,4° West Longitude. Coprates Chasma (---> the Abyss of Coprates) is part of the enormous Valles Marineris Canyon System and its length is of approx. 966 Km (such as about 599,88 miles).

This frame (which is an Original Mars Odyssey Orbiter b/w frame published on the NASA - Planetary Photojournal with the ID n. PIA 17224) has been additionally processed, magnified, contrast enhanced and then colorized in Absolute Natural Colors (such as the colors that a human eye would actually perceive if someone were onboard the NASA - Mars Odyssey Orbiter and then looked down, towards the Surface of Mars), by using an original technique created - and, in time, dramatically improved - by the Lunar Explorer Italia Team.
