Understanding the composition of this small crater may inform us of the ice content of the surrounding terrain. (NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona)

The objective of this observation is to examine a layered feature in an impact crater. The layers may represent layers of mantle from when the climate changed and the shape may be due to the wind. The scene is also found in Context Camera data. (NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona)

The objective of this observation is to examine light and dark layers in an impact crater in Cydonia Mensae. Our interest is in seeing if the layer boundaries are diffuse as suggested in CTX image data. Most of the layers seem to have definite boundaries. (NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona)

This observation was requested to look at some unusual surface textures in Amazonis Planitia. Some of the terrain grades into ridges that could possibly be invasive dikes or lava intruding into overlying ash. Despite the features in this image, Amazonis Planitia is one of the smoothest plains on Mars, and is located between the Tharsis and Elysium...

Based on data from the CaSSIS instrument, this target was requested in order to provide some additional color coverage and to center on a discrete reddish layer in the exposed section of this terrain. The intent is to produce a digital terrain model to get accurate thickness and orientation measurements of the layers exposed here. (NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona)

Our science goal with this target is to monitor frost in active gullies in Moni Crater. Additionally, we want to observe lineae associated with sand dunes on the eastern rim of the crater and seen to be active in the Martian winter. Moni is an approximately 5-km diameter crater in the southern mid-latitude highlands of Noachis Terra, on the inner ring...
