Summary

DescriptionPIA02420 Terraced Craters.jpg	English: This crater (98 km diameter) illustrates the narrow hummocky rim facies, radial ridges, and surrounding extensive field of secondary craters. The well-developed interior terraces and central peaks are typical for mercurian craters in this size range. Note that the smaller craters in the foreground (25-km diameter) also are terraced. This image (FDS 80) was taken during the Mariner 10 spacecraft's first encounter with Mercury. The large crater is now called Brahms.
