These are fun to look at. While I string together a lot of links in the News section, photographic manipulation is not, presently anyway, my forte.

I keep seeing lots and lots of thin flat layering and squared off rocks. I always wonder if this is the result of repeated sedimentation and natural erosion or is some kind of building material and the remnants of ancient structures.


It's got to be from eons of sedimentation. We have the same layering right here on Earth. I'm guessing that the areas we are seeing (which, of course, are a really small portion of Mars limited by the rover's range) result from water flow, drying out, water flow, and the process repeated over and over many years ago. Today there is no flowing water.

Thank you to everyone who has stuck by the YouTube channel and to all of our admins and forum users here on the channel.   They really have kept the website current while I have been busy taking care of things in my personal life.   I promised that the next video would be a long one and have a LOT to look at.  You can get lost in these Gigapans and I really hope that you do!  I spent a lot of time stitching these together and making sure that they were the best quality that I could get them.  SOL 1448 really has been a goldmine for anomaly hunters and those people who are just hobbiest.  I really hope you enjoy this one and expect much more to come from the latest batches of images!
