Dune Monitoring in Crater

Dune Monitoring in Crater

Dunes or Bantha?
This group of dunes almost looks like a wandering herd of Bantha on Tattooine. Our goal with this observation is seasonal dune and frost deposition and sublimation. High resolution can provide for detailed surface measurements. These dunes are within an impact crater in the Northern Hemisphere of Mars.
