MARS RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER HIRISE IMAGES August 13, 2014 o Glaciation at the Eastern Hellas Margin http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_036947_1390 Hellas Crater in the ancient highlands contains some of the clearest evidence on Mars for glacial processes. o The Side of Chasma Boreale http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_037056_2650 Comparing images like this to those taken in previous years and in different seasons allows a more accurate understanding of current surface processes on the Red Planet. o An Irregular, Upright Boulder http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_037190_1765 The trail has a odd repeating pattern, as if the boulder couldn't roll straight due to its shape. o Strange Cones and Flows http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_037222_1820 The shapes of these regions are unusual, and the association with cones suggest that the cones were source vents for local lava flows.

[meteorite-list] Tall Boulder Rolls Down Martian Hill, Lands Upright (MRO)
http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?release=2014-275 Tall Boulder Rolls Down Martian Hill, Lands Upright Jet Propulsion Laboratory August 13, 2014 A track about one-third of a mile (500 meters) long on Mars shows where an irregularly shaped boulder careened downhill to its current upright position, seen in a July 3, 2014, image from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera aboard NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. The image is available online at: http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/spaceimages/details.php?id=PIA18594 The shadow cast by the rock in mid-afternoon sunlight reveals it is about 20 feet (6 meters) tall. In the downward-looking image, the boulder is only about 11.5 feet (3.5 meters) wide. It happened to come to rest with its long dimension vertical. The trail it left on the slope has a pattern that suggests the boulder couldn't roll smoothly or straight due to its shape. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, manages the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter for NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington. HiRISE, one of six science instruments on the orbiter, is operated by the University of Arizona, Tucson. The instrument was built by Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp., Boulder, Colorado.
