About

This VIS image of Olympia Undae was collected during north polar spring. The crests of the dunes and other surfaces are light colored, indicative of a frost covering.

The ejecta is a higher elevation than the rest of the surface, and dunes are "climbing" or "skirting" the ejecta regions. The density of dunes and the alignments of the dune crests varies with location, controlled by the amount of available sand and the predominant winds over time, and, in this case, the presence of different surface elevations. As the season changes into summertime, the dune crests will lose the frost and reve — NASA JPL · 2018. ABD devlet eseri: kamu mali, ticari islerde de serbestce kullanilabilir.
