Hargraves Crater is located on the northwestern margin of Isidis Basin, a region that hosts many proposed future Mars landing sites such as nearby Jezero Crater and the Nili Fossae trough.

This image covers the ejecta along the southern margin of Hargraves and shows an impressive variety of rock types, as indicated by the range in color diversity.

The University of Arizona, Tucson, operates HiRISE, which was built by Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp., Boulder, Colo. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Project for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington.
