This is a photograph of Stickney Crater which is the largest crater on Phobos the martian moon. The crater takes nearly half of the diameter of the entire moon which was discovered in 1877. Even though it has a low about of gravity the streaks are thought to be caused from material sliding down the walls of the crater over a very long period of time. The light blue areas could be newly exposed areas of the moon.
