Thanks for the great reply Robert,
Can you elaborate on the formation of craters, most seem to be quite old, since they are lacking ejecta. There is a crater in the bottom right corner that has a circle river valley/moat around what appears to be ejecta. We aren't quite sure how that was developed and why the valley runs around the ejecta in a circlish pattern. I'm assuming the broken pieces in the middle of the river/lake are rock formations which have been disturbed by wind.
Thanks

Hey guys-girls,
A group of friends and I are currently learning about Mars and the different geology and
surface formations that occur on the planet. There are a number of unknown formations on the
attached image that we are having trouble describing.
- the blue "dust" looking particles to the east of the image
- the dark brown/black particles to the north of the image
We are also finding it hard to determine the different types of craters and old river/lake
formations. Can you please assist us in describing the formations on this image, the group
would greatly appreciate it.
Yours Sincerely,
Ryan, Tina and Jason
