Scientific paper

Much has been learned about the Valles Marineris, and stratigraphic relations inside the troughs have been reasonably well established. However, many questions remain, especially questions pertaining to tectonism and origin. The following issues are briefly considered: the age of the troughs; the evidence for tectonic origin; the relation of Valles Marineris to the Tharsis rise; and the additional factors which may have influenced the origin of the Valles Marineris.
