    Puzzling Paucity of Large Craters on Dwarf Planet Ceres

    July 27, 2016, Categories  Astronomy/Space

    The top of this false-color image includes a grazing view of Kerwan, Ceres' largest impact crater. This well-preserved crater is 280 km (175 miles) wide and is well defined with red-yellow high-elevation rims and a deep central depression shown in blue. Kerwan gradually degrades as one moves toward the center of the image into an 800-km (500-mile) wide, 4-km (2.5-mile) deep depression (in green) called Vendimia Planitia. This depression is possibly what's left of one of the largest craters from Ceres' earliest collisional history. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/UCLA/MPS/DLR/IDA
