Arcuate Fractures in Olympus Mons Caldera
About this image
This VIS image shows part of the caldera at the summit of Olympus Mons - a huge volcano. The arcuate (curved) fractures seen on the right side of the caldera floor were likely formed when later eruptions occurred - note the smoother, younger section to the left.
