Ridge Northeast of Huygens Crater

Ridge Northeast of Huygens Crater

A Ridge Runs through It
Also visible in a Context Camera image, our objective for this observation is to determine the nature of this long ridge to the northeast of Huygens Crater, itself to the west of the massive Hellas impact basin. The ridge is mostly straight, and it might be a dike, but is unlikely to be volcanic in origin.
