Another interesting feature in Mars Geology is the famous "Dust Devil Tracks" or abbreviated DDT, the tracks are intriguing but capturing the phenomena that causes them is more intriguing. The following pics depict some of them

This other one that I called "The Road" is also very intriguing.

The Road

The lines are located at the NE of the MC 24 Phaethontis.In my opinion these lines are older that many of the surroundings, you can see very clear the erosion on the lines, and also some areas where it has been washed away, maybe by wind or maybe by water, in other areas you can see the impact of craters, to me that means that they are pretty older.

Hi everyone, I was wandering on the net and Came across with this website, nice and very scientific oriented, I have been studying the pics posted at MSSS.com and I have come across with quite a few interesting pictures with geological characteristics that challenge my mind.

LIke this strange crater located in

R01-01318

The layers of deposited material are all wrong, it is kind like the crater is devouring them, what do you think?
