Mars Landing Site for 2020 Mission Examined was created by RaptorZN2000
This photograph (ESP_036117_2070) was taken by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) HiRISE Camera on 10 April 2014.

NASA describes this photograph as "Candidate Landing Site for 2020 Mission."

I found many interesting natural geological features and several unnatural looking anomalies such as walls, mounds, monuments, holes and what appear to be mining sites.

Why is NASA considering this as a potential landing site? There are rocks, mounds and other obstacles all over and nothing like previous landing sites, i.e. NASA have always landed their rovers and other craft on flat terrain to prevent damage and potential failure.

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!
