This image was taken in October 2024 by Mars Express’s High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC).
It shows Deuteronilus Cavus, a large depression about 120 km wide. Its round shape suggests that it first formed as an impact crater. Over a long time, water and ice eroded the crater, slowly changing its shape and making it almost twice as big as it was at the beginning.
