The objective of this observation is to determine the nature of a group of ridges. They may be inverted terrain. The surface of Nilosyrtis Mensae is classified as fretted terrain. This terrain contains cliffs, mesas, and wide flat valleys. Surface features are believed to have been caused by debris-covered glaciers.
