About this image

Today's VIS image shows an unnamed crater located on the floor of the much larger Newton Crater in Terra Sirenum. The inner rim of the crater is dissected by numerous channels called gullies. Dust and sand have accumulated at the bottom of the gullies in the middle of the image. An additional unnamed channel is located to the southwest of the crater.
