Fresh and Rayed Unnamed Crater in Tharsis Region (CTX Frame - Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)

This image shows a small Rayed Impact Crater, about 160 mt (530 feet) in diameter, in the Tharsis Region. Relatively recent impacts form Rays of Ejecta that spray out radially from the Crater. In addition to relatively fine material, large boulders and smaller secondary craters are visible in the rays surrounding this crater. Secondary Craters are recognized by their shallow depths (in comparison to Primary Impact Craters), irregular shapes, and appearance in Clusters and Linear Chains.
