Chasma Boreale (3)

Image TRA_000840_2750 was taken by the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera onboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft on September 30, 2006.
The image is centered at 84,7° North Latitude and 16,1° East Longitude. The range to the target site was 319 Km (about 199 miles). At this distance the image scale is 32 cm/pixel (with 1 x 1 binning) so objects ~96 cm across are resolved.
The image shown here has been map-projected to 25 cm/pixel and North is up. The image was taken at a local Mars time of 3:28 PM and the scene is illuminated from the West with a solar incidence angle of 68,1°, thus the Sun was about 21,9° above the horizon.
At a Solar Longitude of 114,2°, the season on Mars is Northern Summer / Southern Winter.
