Mercury - Mariner 10
Computer photomosaic of the Discovery quadrangle of Mercury
Mariner 10 photomosaic of the Discovery quadrangle of Mercury.
This mosaic was made from images taken during the first and
second flybys. The large flat-floored crater just above and
to the left of the image center is Schubert, with a diameter
of 160 km. Above and to the left of that is the double crater
Chekhov. A number of scarps can be seen trending SW to NE
(North is up), just below and to the right of the center.
The largest of these is the Discovery scarp, or Discovery
Rupes.
