Today's VIS image shows part of the floor of Eberwalde Crater. A large delta deposit is located just to the northwest of this image. This crater once hosted a lake, and the floor is covered with layered materials. Clays have been identified, the result of the interaction of water and eroded materials from the crater floor, as well as the influx of sediments from the channel that created the delta. Eberswalde Crater is 62 km in diameter (38 miles).
