Pedestal Crater near Mad Vallis

Once a Pedestal Crater
Also available in Context Camera data, the objective of this observation is to examine a pedestal crater that has part of its ejecta eroded away. Due to this, perhaps layers have been exposed. This crater is located within a much larger and in-filled crater located directly south of the massive Hellas impact basin the Southern Hemisphere. The numerous streaks are dust devil tracks.
