Nota Lunexit: la "criptica" Caption NASA vuol solo dire che il "Suolo Lunare" ivi ripreso NON è stato "naturalmente" disturbato (ergo: o NON è disturbato in toto o, se lo è stato, allora il "disturbo" è il frutto di un'azione meccanica - e cioè, probabilmente, il "getto" di materiale proveniente dal Propulsore di Discesa del Modulo Lunare - LM Descent Engine).MareKromium

PSP_005574_1720_RED_abrowse-01.jpgLayers and Slope-Streaks within Valleys along the Highland-Lowland Boundary (extra-detail mgnf - MULTISPECTRUM; credits: Lunexit)62 visiteSlope Streak formation is among the few known processes currently active on Mars. Since the Slope Streaks in this image appear to superpose (lie on top of) the surfaces between individual dunes, the Streaks most likely formed more recently and are younger than the dunes.
Many hypotheses have been proposed for the formation of Slope Streaks including dry avalanching, geochemical weathering, liquid stains or flows, and moisture wickering.
Recent observations from HiRISE images have revealed that the dark interior of Slope Streaks is lower in elevation than the surroundings, suggesting that material must have been removed in the formation of the streak.MareKromium

Craters-Terby_Crater.jpgTerby Crater (Natural Colors + MULTISPECTRUM; credits: ESA & Lunexit)62 visiteThe High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board ESA’s Mars Express Orbiter imaged the Terby Crater on Mars on 13 April 2007 during orbit 4199.
The Region is of great scientific interest as sediments there hold information on the role of water in the history of the Planet. Eye-catching finger-shaped plateaux extend in the North-South direction. They rise up to 2000 mt above the surrounding terrain. The relatively old crater was filled with sediments in the past, which formed plateaux on erosion.
The flanks of the plateaux clearly exhibit layering of different-coloured material. Differences in colour usually indicate changes in the composition of the material and such layering is called ‘bedding’. Bedding structures are typical of sedimentary rock, which has been deposited either by wind or water. Different rock layers erode differently, forming terraces.
The valleys exhibit gullies, or channels cut in the ground by running liquid, mainly in the Northern part of the image.
These gullies and the rock-bedding structure indicate that the region has been affected by water.
