It is known that the surface of Mars is littered with craters of different from multiple falls of meteorites. But discovered a hole not a crater-like and resembles a huge burn. And judging by the preliminary data, the found structure has a diameter of at least several hundred meters. Scientists believe that the same it goes in depth. But judging by the gathered ice at the bottom of the crater, its depth a lot more. The size and shape of the crater, the Mars researchers see for the first time.
