This perspective view in the Hellas Basin was generated from the high-resolution stereo camera on ESA’s Mars Express. It looks from the frost-covered lower terrain in the basin floor towards the rugged terraces in the basin’s rim in the background.

The scene is part of region imaged by the High Resolution Stereo Camera on Mars Express on 6 December 2015 during orbit 15127. The main image is centred on 45ºS/48ºE and the ground resolution is about 52 m per pixel.
