These small mounds are not only nice to look at, but striking for the “rays” that seem to connect some of them, along with the numerous eroded craters. The “rays” are small channels that are now filled with dunes, some of whose crests are easily visible.
Tiu Valles is a long (1,720 kilometers) outflow channel in Margaritifer Terra in the Northern Hemisphere of Mars.
