Terby Crater is a possible landing spot for Mars Science Laboratory in 2010. This feature was once filled with layered, sedimentary rock. Over time, these materials have been eroded to form an alluring array of cliffs and layered outcrops. A visitor to Terby Crater would be greeted by vistas reminiscent of some of the national parks in the southwestern United States. Click to enlarge. Credit: NASA/JPL/Malin Space Science Systems
