NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) has discovered another intriguing formation on the planet’s barren surface.
As spotted by Universe Today, the spacecraft captured this image of a satisfyingly circular pit — and what its dark, yawning entrance leads to remains a question high on the minds of Mars scientists.
The image, “acquired to determine if any underlying void … and associated faults” were in the region, was taken with the High-Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera, a powerful lens capable of detailing the Martian surface in both visible and near-infrared light.
