At least one should be named "Bush's Fault".

It is unclear what process is responsible for the chain of depressions. Maybe Mars had a Democrat campaign agenda?

So, you're saying their from GREEN CHEESE FARTS. ??? Oh, no. Absolutely not. Everyone knows green cheese farts are strictly lunar.

...and tectonic ‘grabens’ in the Phlegethon Catena region of Mars.Aren't those caused by graboids?
Gee, maybe there really is life on Mars!

I can see the 'B' movie now. "Subsurface Bloviators of Mars"
Might even cause the drive-ins to make a comeback...

"Subsurface Bloviators of Mars"T Kennedy could star. He's already the subsurface bloviator of Mass...

I guess with all those faults, Mars must definitely be male...

If you look closely you can see evidence of post remodial tectonic cleviance. The irregular size of the grabens linear streaming is the tip off.

T Kennedy could star. He's already the subsurface bloviator of Mass...From the pictures I have seen he is a bloviator of signigficant mass...I wonder how much of his influence is gravitational...

Those depressions -- possibly pingos? This presupposes ice and melting ice -- mmaybe not a possibility. But that's what they look like to me.

" One possibility is the collapse of the surface due to the removal of subsurface materials, while other suggestions include that tension cracks may have formed in the subsurface and caused subsequent collapse." Come on. With all the water running around, they're just sinkholes, don't you know!

De-gassing along the fault would be my bet...subsurface, wind buried, CO2 ice heated by subsurface friction along the fault or escaping volcanic fluids, causing the escaping gas to blow away the sediment from above the vents along the fault. What he said.
