Wind-Lanes (Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)

Caption ESA originale:"Loose sand fragments were transported by wind, and impacted on the Bedrock, slowly removing parts of the Surface, like a sand-blaster. If the winds blow in the same direction for a long enough period, ‘Wind-Lanes’, as shown in the picture, can occur. On Earth, the remnants of these features which have not been eroded away are called ‘Yardangs’. Where the Surface consists of more resistant material, the force of the wind may not be strong enough to cause this sand-blasting. This might be the reason for the three flat regions (the first in the foreground on the left, and the other two on the top right), which measure about 17 by 9 Km".
