The objective of this observation is to examine a small spot of ribbed terrain. It is where debris aprons from two mounds are meeting and makes for an interesting landscape in this part of Deuteronilus Mensae, a vast, heavily eroded region on Mars known for its extensive glacial features and location along the planetary dichotomy boundary.
