Diverse Landforms and Lithologies near Nili Fossae
This portion of our 2010 image shows spectacular Noachian-epoch diversity with the rock and mineralogy. The Noachian age of Mars goes back approximately 3 to 4.5 billion years ago and was a promising era for a possible emergence of life on Mars.
Enhanced image cutout is less than 1 km (under a mile) top to bottom and north is to the left. For full images, including map-projected with scale bars, visit the source link.
