MARS RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER HIRISE IMAGES
June 29, 2011

o Active Gullies in Crater Dune Field, Southern Polar Region
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_022255_1095

  These dune gullies are located in an unnamed crater just north
  of the Richardson Crater, which also contain dune gullies.

o Lobate Flow Feature in Eastern Hellas

  Similar flow features are found in many other craters
  throughout the Southern mid-latitudes of Mars, particularly in
  this region east of Hellas.

o Terraced Eastern Wall along the Middle Reach of Ma

  In this HiRISE image, numerous trough-like channels on the lower
  wall and terrace region suggest that water flowed in Ma'adim
  Vallis in the ancient past.
