Ancient Layered Rocks on Mars

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

This image from Mars shows ancient layered rocks and wind-blown sand in Schiaparelli Crater, spanning about three kilometers. The formation of these layers is still under study, with hypotheses including deposition from ancient water or wind. Winds and sandstorms have since smoothed and eroded the surface, creating a landscape that some might mistake for a terrestrial coastline.
