Science Question:
Is it possible to identify in an unexplored basin area on Mars similar features to that of a region known to contain an abundance of hematite?
Main Results:
1) Based on the surface features we found in each of our images, we conclude that water existed in all of them.

2) Many similar features found in a hematite-rice environment was found in our images

3) We need to do more work to really prove our hypothesis.

Extra Comments:

2) Using the software to target the images was very challenging, but we did a good job!

3) MSIP stretched us to our limits.
