About
This THEMIS image shows part of western Candor Chasma. Near the bottom of the image is an impact crater. Impact craters are relatively rare within all the canyons of Valles Marineris. The lack of craters may be due to the relative young age of the canyon system - younger surfaces on Mars have fewer craters than older surfaces. Another factor is that the high rate of erosion and deposition within the canyon erodes the ejecta blanket and fills in the crater, effectively removing the crater over time. Candor Chasma is one of the largest canyons that make up Valles Marineris. It is approximately 810 km long (503 miles) and has is divided into two regions - eastern and western Candor.
