Summary

DescriptionErté crater MESSENGER NAC mosaic.jpg	English: Erté crater on Mercury. Mosaic of MESSENGER Narrow Angle Camera images. Approximate north is in upper right. Source images are: EN1008771355M, EN1008771367M, EN1008771379M The upper right image was published by JPL ("The Edge of Erte", Release Date: August 23, 2013) with the following caption: The crater Erte, the pseudonym of Romain de Tirtoff was a Russian born French artist and designer who passed away in 1990. The crater that bears his name is a complex crater that is 48.5 km in diameter (30 miles). Here the flat floor of the crater meets the crater rim and the surrounding ejecta blanket. This image was acquired as a high-resolution targeted observation. Targeted observations are images of a small area on Mercury's surface at resolutions much higher than the 200-meter/pixel morphology base map. It is not possible to cover all of Mercury's surface at this high resolution, but typically several areas of high scientific interest are imaged in this mode each week. Statistics for the center image are: Emission Angle: 20.9 Incidence Angle: 40.4 Latitude: 27.5 Longitude: 242.8 Phase Angle: 61.3
