Martian landscape. This HiRISE image shows landforms just outside the northeastern rim of impact crater, and its ejecta contains the signature of possible clays. Since clays form in the presence of water, what kind of environment was here when the impact occurred?This image is located northwest of Hellas Planitia, in the northwest of Hellas Planitia of Mars, and is less than 5 km across. A unique optimised version of NASA imagery. Credit: NASA/JPL/UArizona
