Mars - Viking 2 Orbiter
Wind streaks in Memnonia, Mars
Wind streaks associated with craters in Memnonia, Mars
are shown in this Viking 2 Orbiter image. The streaks appear
to exhibit lighter coloring in the interior, bounded by
dark side lobes. The dark areas may represent areas of erosion,
while the light streaks are caused by deposition of light
colored material. North is at ~11:00 and the image is about
220 km across.
