Psp_010689_2025_red~0.jpgTectonic Fissure (Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)135 visiteThis image of a region East of Tooting Crater is centered on a Tectonic Fissure West of the Olympus Mons Aureole. Three other Channel Systems formed along it.
The feature of note is a broad shallow Channel System exhibiting a braided pattern that abruptly changes to a steep walled channel system near the Fissure.
These steep walled channel systems are thought to be formed when ground water flowing out along a cliff undermines the slope resulting in collapse of overlying materials. Erosion then typically moves in a headward direction along the pre-existing shallow Channel System. This process is known as "Groundwater Sapping".
There are other places on Mars (such as Cerberus Fossae), where these fissures appear to have flood channels associated with them.
Within this channel there is a more resistant, cliff-forming layer near the surface with some defined horizontal Strata (such as Layers). Multiple Dark Streaks known as slope streaks originate from the base of this hard layer. Slope Streaks are generally dark when first formed and then gradually fade over time. The origin of these Slope Streaks is still under debate, but they are thought to be dry Dust Avalanches.

Volcanoes-Olympus_Mons-MGS-2003_09-PCF-LXTT-00.jpgOlympus Mons (Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)275 visiteCaption originale: "This is a red camera wide angle view of the Giant Martian Volcano, Olympus Mons, acquired by the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC). The Volcano is large enough to cover much of the state of New Mexico. This view was taken looking West toward the Sunward Limb of the Planet. The limb is the horizon to the left; the dark band is outer space. Sunlight illuminates this scene from the lower left". MareKromiumSet 02, 2011

Titan-Regions-Belet_Region-PIA14571-PCF-LXTT.jpgBelet Region (Enhanced Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)125 visiteCaption NASA:"The Cassini Spacecraft peers down through the hazy Atmosphere of Titan to view the Dark Region called "Belet". This image was captured using a spectral filter sensitive to wavelengths of Near-InfraRed Light centered at 938 nanometers. The large Region called Belet has a low albedo, meaning it reflects little light. This view looks toward the Trailing Hemisphere of Titan. North is up.
The image was taken with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on June 23, 2011. The view was obtained at a distance of approx. 1,6 MKM (such as about 990.000 miles) from Titan and at a Phase Angle of 14°. Image scale is roughly 9 Km (approx. 5,589 miles) per pixel".MareKromiumAgo 30, 2011
