  There is a circular feature in this observation that appears to
  stand above the surrounding terrain. How did it form?

o Beautiful Blocks of Bedrock

  This image targets a 3-kilometer diameter crater that occurs
  within the ejecta blanket of the much older Bakhuysen Crater.

o The Plains are Not Plain

  This image covers some of the plains south of Capri Chasma in
  eastern Valles Marineris.

o Drag Folds in the North Polar Layered Deposits

  This image shows what looks like drag folds, where rock layers
  bend before they break in a fault.
