$This image from NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft of the Claritas Fossae region illustrates how fractures affect other features. In this instance, the fractures control the path of several channels (from upper right towards lower left).$

$Located in Solis Planum, this unusual volcanic flow has margins darker than the surroundings. It appears that the flow originated in the linear fracture or vent that bisects the flow deposit. This image was captured by NASA's Mars Odyssey.$

$The lava channels and collapse features in this image from NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft are located near the summit of Arsia Mons. The fracture in the lower right part of the image marks the boundary of the summit caldera.$

$This image from NASA's 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft shows evidence of tectonic stresses that deform and fracture rocks and planetary surfaces. Right angles seen here are a good indication that the feature was formed by tectonic stresses.$
