During its second encounter with Mercury on Sept. 21, 1974, NASA Mariner 10 took this picture of the planet South Polar Region. Many of the craters have denuded rims peppered by smaller craters.
Ver en NASA ↗This image was taken by NASA Mariner 10 during it first encounter with Mercury in 1974. The scarp forms a broad lobe whose southern end abuts against and follows closely the irregular contour of the crater wall.
