Volcanic_Features-Lava_or_Mud_Flows-01.jpgControversial Features of Zephyria Planum (Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)113 visiteOriginal caption:"This MGS-MOC image shows a portion of a shallow Channel carved in the Plains of the Zephyria Region of Mars. This feature might be the result of the passing of either extremely fluid Lava or, perhaps, Mud".
Location near: 5,1° North Lat. and 203,7° West Long.

Craters-Unnamed_Defrosting_Crater-PIA03921-01.jpgUnnamed Defrosting Crater (Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)228 visiteCaption NASA originale:"This MGS-MOC image shows a Surface in the South Polar Region, covered by CO2 Frost. In this springtime scene, the Frost has begun to sublime so that Sandy Surfaces exhibit an abundance of Dark Spots. The circular depression is probably the remains of an Impact Crater. In summer, the Spotted Surfaces in this image would be darker than their surroundings, because they are patches of Windblown Sand".

Several Gullies extend from near the top of the Crater Rim, downslope toward the Floor of the Crater. Liquid water might have played a role in their genesis".

The orientation of the Dunes — with the steep faces toward the South — suggests that winds generally blew from North to South at the time the Dunes were formed".

Flow_Features-Zephyria_Planum-PIA03066.jpgFlow Features in Zephyria Planum (Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team) 244 visiteOriginal caption:"This MGS-MOC image shows the broken, platy texture of Flow Surfaces in the Zephyria Region of Mars. Some investigators have suggested that these materials represent the remains of an ice-covered lake; others suggest that these are the Surfaces of hardened Lava that - when it was erupting - was very hot and fluid. Although not illustrated here, a key piece of evidence against the ice-covered lake hypothesis is that there are some small Craters formed on these Surfaces, and some of them have Boulders in their Ejecta Blanket. The Boulders indicate that the material is rock-solid".
