What caused the central pit within this impact crater: unusual subsurface layering or a lucky second impact?
Layered Rocks in a Crater in Arabia Terra
These layers are mostly parallel with adjacent layers, and sets of layers often form intricate curved shapes that are reminiscent of wood grain.
Dark Dunes in Herschel Crater
Part of the floor of Herschel Crater, a roughly 300 km wide impact basin located in the southern cratered highlands of Mars.
Layered Deposits in Aureum Chaos
Chaotic terrains on Mars are disorganized regions of blocks and large mounds which appear to have been produced by the collapse of pre-existing terrain.

Mantles and Flows in Moreux Crater
A part of the central uplift of Moreux Crater, where the underlying topography appears mantled by a layer deposit.
Layered Mesa in Coprates Chasma
The layered rocks could have formed from volcanic, lacustrine, or aeolian sediments that were deposited in portions of the Valles Marineris trough.
Slipping and Sliding in Coprates Chasma
This image shows a landslide in the Coprates Chasma region of Valles Marineris that occurred when a large unstable area of rock broke away from the cliffs along the top of the image.
