Osuga Valles Depression and Part of Relict Channel

This public image suggestion via HiWish kept the rationale simple: “We wish to study the depression properties and mineralogical data to examine the stratigraphy of the walls.” Osuga Valles is a complex set of channels located near Eos Chasma. The channels were likely cut by multiple episodes of flowing water.
