MRO | Huge Illuminated Dome Inside Nili Fossae on Mars

BACKGROUND:
Two photographs are analyzed here: (G21_026346_2001_XN_20N286W) was acquired by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) CTX Camera on 2012-03-10T09:48:08.974 and (P21_009115_2081_XN_28N019W) was acquired by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) CTX Camera on 2008-07-06T17:59:30.940 respectively.

ANALYSIS:
Featured is a huge dome-shaped object approximately 450 metres across inside a depression. It appears to be self-illuminated due to the lack of any shadows on the dome itself. The second dome-shaped object measures approximately 300 metres across and is also located inside a circular depression (note the strange surface features to the right of the dome).

Could these be dome-shaped structures located in circular depressions to avoid detection, radiation from the Sun or are these just natural mounds inside depressions?

These remind me of the huge dome built at the Amundsen–Scott South Pole Station:

As always, until we get to see these anomalies up close and personal and investigate them in detail, I can only speculate as to what these objects might be.

DISCLAIMER:
Many or all of the anomalies/artefacts covered in this presentation may be naturally occurring geological features caused by some type of geological processes, however due to the lack of specific information from the source we can only speculate whether these are all natural or some artificial in nature.

In cases where I say an anomaly looks like something I’m attempting to clarify what I see and not specifically that the anomaly is what I say it looks like.

My intention is only to share anomalies I’ve discovered on Mars and not to convince anyone that there is or was a civilization on Mars.

As Will Farrar from WhatsUpInTheSky says: “I see what I see, you see what you see.”
