Layers in crater found within the Schiaparelli Crater basin as seen by Mars Global Surveyor
Schiaparelli is an impact crater located near Mars's equator. It is 461 km in diameter and located at latitude 3° south and longitude 344° W. Some places within Schiaparelli show many layers that may have formed by the wind, volcanoes, or deposition under water. Some are quite beautiful as shown in the pictures above and below. People often seek to travel to our national parks like the Grand Canyon to see layers like the ones in Schiaparelli.
Close view of layers in Schiaparelli Crater, as seen by HiRISE underHiWish Dark sand is visible on some layers.
