The channel in today's VIS image is called Auqakuh Vallis. Large channels on Mars are named for the word mars/star in different languages on Earth, small channels are named for rivers on Earth. Auqakuh is the word mars in Quechua (Inca). Orbit Number 79261 Latitude 29.0373 Longitude 60.3106 Instrument VIS Captured 2019-10-27 16 12

On the left side of today's VIS image is the Jezero Crater delta deposit. This feature was created by the flow from the rim channel into the crater. Deltas form when sediments settle out due to a decrease in speed of a river system. Deltas often form where large rivers flow into the ocean, like the Mississippi and Nile deltas. This can also occur where rivers flow into large lakes, such as the Great Salt Lake and Lake St. Clair river deltas. It is believed that the Jezero Crater delta formed this way. Jezero Crater is the home of the Mars 2020 rover - Perseverance - and its little helicopter buddy - Ingenuity. The Mars 2020 mission is focused on the delta, and the information it holds about a time when Mars was much wetter.

Today's VIS image shows part of Maja Valles, a large channel system in Lunae Planum. The main part of the channel is visible at the upper left in this image. The lower part of the image is located within an old crater called Stege Crater. The channel in the central part of the image is flowing along the inner rim of the crater and into the main Maja Valles channel just off the image to the left. Maja Valles in 1600 km (1000 miles) long. Like most outflow channels in the region, Maja Valles arises from Valles Marineris and drains into Chryse Planitia. Maja Valles starts in Juventae Chasma.

This VIS image is located between the uplands of Aeolis Mensae and Aeolis Planum. This region of the Martian surface is highly dissected by wind action. The surface materials are poorly cemented and easily eroded. It has been suggested that the surface is comprised of volcanic ash deposits, sourced from the Tharsis and Apollinaris volcanoes.

Several named and unnamed channels are located south of the Medusa Fossae Formation on the margin with Terra Sirenum. One of the unnamed channels is visible in the lower half of this VIS image. Wind erosion and deposition have modified the channel, indicating the channel is older than the wind action.
