This Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) image shows an Unnamed Impact Crater, a little over 2 Km (> 1,2 mi) in diameter, located in Noachis Terra near 50,4° South and 14,3° West. The Crater's Bouldery Ejecta Blanket has protected underlying material from being eroded away by wind, leaving the Ejecta up on a low Pedestal. This picture covers an area about 3 Km (approx. 1,9 miles) across, and is illuminated by sunlight from the lower left.
