Mars rover MRO

The HiRISE camera on NASA's Mars Orbiter took this close-up image of a "new" impact crater (on a geological scale, but very old on a human scale) in the Sirenum Posei region of Mars on March 30, 2015. Photo: NASA

The thin, dark streaks on the slopes of Bamai hills like the one in the section of the Horowitz Crater could have been formed by the seasonal flow of water on present-day Mars. The channels are several hundred meters long

The dark narrow channel known as recurring slope lineae flows down a hill on Mars photographed in infrared light and appears to be an area where water flows today. Recently, scientists located brackish water on this hill located in the Hale Crater, thus confirming an original hypothesis that the channel was indeed formed by flowing water. The blue color upstream does not seem to belong to this configuration but rather they are formed in the presence of the mineral peroxin. Credits: NASA/JPL/University of Arizona

These images taken by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) are of the nucleus of Comet C/2013 A1 or Siding Spring during the comet's transit near Mars on October 19, 2014. Comet Siding Spring is on its first trip near the Sun and came from the Oort Cloud at the outer edge of the system the sun The image composed of two versions of two of the best photographs of the comet by HiRISE, in the upper part the images from dynamic range, show the nucleus and the bright halo near the nucleus. At the bottom of the image you see two clarified versions of the outer halo, in which the inner area is saturated. The pictures on the left and right were taken nine minutes apart.
