Today's VIS image shows part of the lowland plains north of the Elysium volcanic complex. Right angles are almost always created by tectonic forces. These linear depressions and the right angle intersections most likely were created in response to the volcanic activity that resulted in the uplifted surface and volcanoes of Elysium.
