The Mars we know is a dry, dusty, barren place and in just about every image we see of the planet, it’s a pale shade of orange, but there are some areas of the nearby world that have unique and colorful personalities all their own. In a new blog post, NASA highlights one such area known as Danielson Crater.
The crater itself absolutely massive, measuring some 42 miles wide. Tucked away within it, gorgeous rock formations dusted with dark sand give the area a distinctly alien appearance, and the MRO has no problem spotting it from high above.
