Layered Features in Craters in Galaxias Fossae Region

Layered Features of Two Craters
Our goal with this observation is to examine layered structures in two small craters in the Galaxias Fossae. These may be the remains of layers that once covered a wider area here. Pictures like this will help us measure the extent of this supposed unit. This scene is also visible in a Context Camera image.
