Today's VIS image shows a landslide deposit in Tiu Valles. The impact that created the crater likely caused the landslide, either during the impact event or shortly after. Located in Margaritifer Terra, Tiu Valles is part of a large system of channels that arise from Vallis Marineris and flow northward to empty into Chryse Planitia. Tiu Valles is 1720km long (1069 miles). Orbit Number: 88299 Latitude: 14.6135 Longitude: 325.705 Instrument: VIS Captured: 2021-11-09 20:20 https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA25197
