HiPOD: Sinuous Ridges and Possible Layers

A Context Camera image shows sinuous ridges and possible layers at this location. One interpretation is that erosion has formed inverted channels and incised them into distal alluvial fans.

HiPOD: Esker Candidates in Mamers Valles

An esker is a long ridge of sediment deposited by meltwater from a retreating glacier or ice sheet. These possible eskers could help us understand non-climatic drivers of meltwater production and habitability.

HiPOD: Layers to the West of Gale Crater

Our objective is to examine thin layers in the Nepenthes Mensae region. Because this location is close to Gale Crater, these layers may one day be compared to ones being studied by the Curiosity rover.
