Eberswalde Crater and Delta in HR
Original caption:"Scientifically, perhaps the most important result from use of the MOC on NASA's MGS during that spacecraft's extended mission has been the discovery and documentation of a 'fossil delta'. The feature is located in a crater northeast of Holden Crater, near 24,0° South Latitude and 33,7° West Longitude. Since the announcement of the discovery of the delta in November 2003, the International Astronomical Union has provided a provisional name (pending final approval) for the crater in which the landforms occur. 
The crater has been named Eberswalde (a German town). 
This image offers a HR view of a portion of the fossil delta than any seen earlier. North is up. At the bottom of the frame, the image includes the north end of a looping, inverted, meandering channel. The image covers an area of about 3 by 3 Km (about 1,9x1,9 miles). It was produced using a technique called "compensated pitch and roll targeted observation," in which the rotation rate of the spacecraft is adjusted to match the ground speed under the camera. At full resolution, this map-projected image is at 50 centimeters (20 inches) per pixel".
