Pingualuit crater seen by satellite - Pingualuit crater seen by satellite - The Pingualuit crater, formerly known as the New Quebec crater, is located at the northern end of Quebec, Nunavik. It's a crater caused by the impact of a meteorite that fell about 1.4 million years ago. Visible to the left of the image, this almost perfectly circular impact crater measures about 3.4 km in diameter and houses a lake 260 metres deep. Image obtained by Landsat-7 satellite on 17 August 2002. Nasa's Landsat 7 satellite captured this image of Pingualuit Crater (a meteorite crater produced from an impact roughly 1.4 million years ago) on August 17, 2002. In this image, water appears blue, and land appears in varying shades of beige. The high latitude of the area limits vegetation, so thick, lush forests do not flourish in this region. With a diameter of 3.44 kilometers (2.14 miles), Pingualuit Crater holds a lake about 267 meters (876 feet) deep. The crater is the blue circle visible in the left part

Mercury seen by the Messenger probe - Mercury seen by Messenger spacecraft - Image of Mercury, obtained by the Messenger probe on October 6, 2008. The bright crater in the middle of the picture down is the Kuiper crater. The large striations north and east of the crater are observed for the first time by a space probe. Recolorised image. The spectacular image shows the departing planet taken about 90 minutes after the spacecraft's closest approach to Mercury on October 6, 2008. The bright crater just south of the center of the image is Kuiper, identified on images from the Mariner 10 mission in the 1970s. For most of the terrain east of Kuiper, toward the limb (edge) of the planet, the departing images are the first spacecraft views of that portion of Mercury's surface. A striking characteristic of this newly imaged area is the large pattern of rays that extend from the northern region of Mercury to regions south of Kuiper. This extensive ray system appears to emanate from a relatively

March - Opportunity - Cratere Endurance. 05/2004 - Martian crater Endurance seen by Opportunity. 05/2004 - Panorama of 360 degres obtained by Opportunity from 22 to 28 May 2004. The Rover Opportunity landed on Mars in the Meridiani Planum region on January 25, 2004. This 360 - degree panorama shows “” Endurance Crater”” and the surrounding plains of Meridiani Planum on Mars. It took seven sols to complete this panorama (sols 117 - 123), using 81 separate camera positions. The composite shown here is an approximate true - color rendering

Moon: Aristarchus crater - Moon: Aristarchus crater - Apollo 15 - The Aristarchus crater and the Schroeter valley. Image obtained from the Apollo 15 control module. An oblique view of Schroeter's Valley and the crater Aristarchus, as photographed by the Fairchild metric camera in the Scientific Instrumentation Module (SIM) bay of the Apollo 15 Command and Service Module (CSM) in lunar orbit. This view is looking south. The large, bright - appearing crater to the left of the head of meandering Schroeter's Valley is Aristarchus, the center of which is located at 48 degrees west longitude and 214 degrees north latitude. The crater Aristarchus approximately 35 kilometers (about 21.75 statute miles) in diameter. The head of Schroeter's Valley, a sinuous rille in the Aristarchus Plateau in the Ocean of Storms, is called Cobra Head. Herodotus the crater just above and to the right of Cobra Head in upper center. The three - inch mapping camera was one of eight lunar orbital science experiments

Cratere Manicouagan - Quebec - January 2014 - The Manicouagan Impact Crater reservoir in Quebec, Canada - Cratere d'impact Manicouagan, Quebec, seen from the International Space Station (ISS) on January 2, 2014. This 100-kilometre crater formed 212 million years ago, following the fall of an asteroid on Earth. One of the Expedition 38 crew members aboard the Earth - orbiting International Space Station recorded this image which features the Manicouagan Crater and reservoir located primarily in Manicouagan Regional County Municipality in the Cote - Nord region of Quebec, Canada. Scientists believe the crater was caused by the impact of a 5 kilometer (3 mile) diameter asteroid about 215.5 million years ago (Triassic Period). The crater is a multiple - ring structure about 100 kilometers (60 miles) across, with its 70 kilometer (40 mile) diameter inner ring as its most prominent feature; it contains a 70 kilometer (40 mile) diameter annular lake, the Manicouagan Reservoir, surrounding an

Occator Crater on Ceres - Occator Crater on Ceres: View of Occator crater in the northern hemisphere of the dwarf planet Ceres. Occator is 92 km wide and 4 km deep. Bright spots are visible, probably salt deposits. Mosaic of images taken by the Dawn probe. Occator Crater, home of Ceres' intriguing brightest areas, is 57 miles (92 kilometers) wide and 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) deep. Occator displays evidence of recent geologic activity. The latest research suggests that the bright material in this crater is comprised of salts left behind after a briny liquid emerged from below, froze and then sublimated, meaning it turned from ice into vapor.

An impact crater about 15 km in diameter differs from the striated surface of the satellite. In the sky are represented Jupiter, the Europe satellite on the top right, and Io on the left of Jupiter. Jupiter's largest satellite Ganymede has a varying surface, some of which is characterized by rumpled bundles of ridges and grooves that run for hundreds of miles over a frozen surface of water - ice. They probably formed long ago when tectonic forces pulled apart Ganymede's upper crust; similar sets of faults occur in rift zones on Earth, as in eastern Africa. Subsequent meteoritic impacts have peppered - - and broken in places - - the continuity of the running formations. In this image an impact crater about 10 miles in diameter dominates a scene otherwise defined by a dozen long ridges. In the middle of the crater is a

Mars - Atmosphere - View of Mars Planet with Argyre Basin, obtained by the Viking 1 probe in July 1976. Argyre measures 1300 km in diameter and is the second largest impact crater on Mars, after Hellas Planitia. The Argyre impact basin in the southern highlands of Mars. The basin, which is approximately 1,300 kilometers in diameter, was formed about 4 billion years ago during the Heavy Bombardment Period of the early Solar System when an asteroid or comet roughly 50 kilometers across impacted Mars. Argyre is believed to be the second - largest impact basin on Mars after Hellas Planitia and may be one of the best preserved ancient impact basins from the Heavy Bombardment Period
