About this image
The major Martian dust storm of 2007 filled the sky with dust and produced conditions that prevented the THEMIS VIS camera from being able to image the surface. With no new images being acquired, we've dug into the archive to highlight some interesting areas on Mars. The this week's region is Valles Marineris.This image of Coprates Chasma is a bit hazy at the canyon floor. Note the large landslide at the bottom third of the image.
