Science Question:
Is there evidence of ancient polar ice layered deposits in Holden Crater?
Main Results:
1) The layering in Holden Crater appears to be caused by other factors.

2) Our research leads us to believe that layering in Holden Crater most likely was caused by either impact residue, water or wind.

3) For there to have been ancient polar ice layers at Holden Crater, we determined that the poles would have to have been different.
