Amazonian Groundwater Springline at Peace Vallis Fan, Gale Crater; Implications for a Late Period of Surface Habitability

Orbital HiRISE data and rover imagery from MSLs ChemCam RMI reveal a distinct groundwater springline on the Peace Vallis fan within Gale Crater. This site is a prime candidate in the search for recent habitability and possible subsurface extant life.
