abstract |
The current landing site candidates for the Mars Science Laboratory involve sedimentary
deposits in impact craters, including Hale, Gale, an unnamed crater in Nili Fosse,
and Miyamoto crater. Miyamoto crater is a 160-km-diameter impact crater of Noachian
age. The floor of the Miyamoto crater, southwest of Meridiani Planum is a potential
site for studying aqueous processes on Mars. The crater floor contains raised curvilinear
features that are suggestive of past fluvial activity. Unfortunately, the potential
for identifying and studying hydrothermal deposits in this location has been handicapped
by the lack of high resolution CRISM data from the crater rim, due to the focus of
providing data only on potential landing site ellipses. A search for evidence of hydrothermal
activity in crater rims and central uplifts could provide important alternative targets
for future rovers and sam-ple return missions. |
