Now that the volcanic region of Olympus Mon and Tharsis Montes have been explored, the colonists are going to turn their attention south. Terra Sirenum is an area of mars with heavy cratering and it once held a large lake. There is great potential for all kinds of different and unexpected science data to be collected and analyzed.
“I feel like I am back in the lack of 10,000 lakes, except, with craters. Amazing!”

The Tharsis Montes is an interesting volcanic formation of three volcanoes. The colonists want to explore this region to get an idea of how these volcanoes could be so evenly spaced. What kind of plate tectonic activity too place to make this formation? What about the other volcanic formations in the region that could give deeper clues to a younger Mars
“We have placed sensors at the top of all three volcanoes. We should have readings within the hour. When the stations are up and running, we will make our way down.”
