Tiu_Valles-ESA-PCF-LXTT.jpgTiu Valles (Natural Colors; credits: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)70 visiteThis image taken by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board Mars Express shows the mouth of the Tiu Valles Channel System on the Red Planet. The picture was taken in orbit 3103 on 10 June 2006 with a ground resolution of approx. 16 mt/pixel. Visible in the lower part of the image are remnants of a once 'Streamlined' Island. The upper part of the scene covers the mouth of the Tiu Valles nearly in its entire width, approx. 55 Km.
Its winding, meandering Ridges, bound by depressions are eye-catching. The processes that formed these odd structures are still unknown. Possibly, during flooding events, water or water-rich surface layers came in contact with lava from the surrounding areas, which then might have led to the formation of these mysterious ridges.
The Region is located at approx. 27° North Lat. and 330° East Long. The Sun illuminates the scene from the North West, the lower left-hand side in the image. MareKromium
