We have enough hardware in orbit that some eyes could be on the impact site….do we have anything still in orbit that would have sufficient mass/velocity to form a deep enough impact to vaporize or at least churn up substrata? I know the orbital velocity in a 300 km orbit around Mars is just a small percentage of that @ Earth…thoughts?
