A Large New Crater Exposes the Limits of Water Ice on Mars

A Large New Crater Exposes the Limits of Water Ice on Mars

Water ice in the Martian mid-latitudes has advanced and retreated in response to variations in the planet's orbit, obliquity, and climate. A 150 m-diameter new impact crater near 35°N provides the lowest-latitude impact exposure of subsurface ice on Mars. This is the largest known ice-exposing...
