Atlantis Chaos

Today's VIS image shows part of Atlantis Chaos. Chaos terrain is typified by regions of blocky, often steep sided, mesas interspersed with deep valleys. With time and erosion the valleys widen and the mesas become smaller. The mesas in this image appear brighter than the surrounding lowlands, likely due to relatively less dust cover. Atlantis Chaos is located in Terra Sirenum. Orbit Number: 92160 Latitude: -34.9498 Longitude: 183.405 Instrument: VIS Captured: 2022-09-23 18:04 https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA25749
