PSP_001916_2220_RED_abrowse.jpgKnobs and Mounds on the Northern Plains (Natural Colors; credits: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)54 visiteLight-toned Mounds occur across the image.
The northern part of the image is dominated by small Knobs or Patches, while there are features hundreds of meters across to the South. The larger features frequently have one or more craters and an irregular shape; it has been proposed that these features are Mud Volcanoes, which erupt mud instead of lava.
On Earth, Mud Volcanoes usually form in conditions of tectonic pressurization or rapid burial of sediments.

At high resolution, the Knobs show some fine lineations which may be wind-blown material, but are otherwise very smooth. In between the Mounds, the Surface is rough and rich in Boulders. The few Boulders on the Mounds were likely ejected from nearby Impact Craters.
Information like this from HiRISE images provides useful constraints on the formation and material of these Knobs and Cones.

Sungrazer-2010-SOHO.jpgSungrazer54 visiteCaption NASA:"Intense and overwhelming, the direct glare of the Sun is blocked by the smooth occulting disk in this image from the Sun-staring SOHO Spacecraft. Taken on January 3rd, 2010, an extreme UltraViolet image of the Sun to scale, is superimposed at the center of the disk. Beyond the disk's outer boundary, is a Sungrazer Comet, one of the brightest yet seen by SOHO.
The comet was discovered by an Australian Amateur Astronomer, Alan Watson, while examining earlier images from another Sun-watching Spacecraft, STEREO-A. Based on their orbits, Sungrazers are believed to belong to the Kreutz family of comets, created by successive break ups from a single large Parent Comet that passed very near the Sun in the twelfth century.
Subjected to strong Tidal Forces and intense Solar Heat, this Sungrazer did not survive its close encounter".
