Caption NASA:"Bacolor Crater is a magnificent Impact Surface Feature about 20 Km (approx. 12 miles) wide. The lines on the Ejecta Blanket surrounding the Crater rim come from a surge of superheated gas and debris flying outward in the wake of the Meteorite impact that created the Crater.
This view combines images taken during the period from September 2002 to October 2005 by the Thermal Emission Imaging System instrument on NASA's Mars Odyssey orbiter. It is part of a special set of images marking the occasion of Odyssey becoming the longest-working Mars Spacecraft in history.
The pictured location on Mars is 33° North Lat. and 118,6° East Long.".
