Ripley (crater)

Ripley is the unofficial name given to an impact crater on Pluto's moon Charon. It is located in Charon's northern hemisphere, within the highlands of Oz Terra. It is named after the heroine Ellen Ripley in the science-fiction/horror film Alien.

The floor and terrain surrounding Ripley are dark. Unlike Mordor Macula and Gallifrey Macula, however, the dark material within Ripley is not reddish-brown.
