"This image covers many shallow irregular pits with raised rims, concentrated along ridges and other topographic features. How did these odd features form?

They can't be impact craters with such fortuitous alignment and irregular margins. They aren't wind-blown deposits because there are many boulders, too big to be moved by the wind. There are younger wind-blown drifts on top of the pits, and there's no clear connection to volcanism

It's the love-child of Londo Molari and G'Kar! Looks more like the love-child of Londo Molari and John Sheridan |
