Waspie_Dwarf Posted September 12, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Terraced Craters and Layered TargetsSmall impact craters usually have simple bowl shapes; however, when the target material has different layers of different strength, then more complicated crater shapes can emerge.

Waspie_Dwarf Posted September 12, 2013 Author #4 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Layers, Bedrock Ridges, and Dark Sand in Schiaparelli Crater The ridge origin is a mystery, but the sand may simply be nucleating on the ridges. This suggests that some apparent large ripples on Mars are sand nucleation sites on pre-existing topography. (Audio by Tre Gibbs.
