Summary[edit]
DescriptionLRO Recent Impact.jpg |
English: This image shows a very young impact crater in the moon's Balmer basin. The dark streamers are impact melt splashes thrown out during the crater formation. The entire image is 1,302 meters (0.8 miles) wide.
The unnamed crater shown here is notable for several distinct features. It is not circular in form like most impact craters, perhaps due to a pre-existing crater on the surface or a weakness in the moon's crust. The dark streamers are the result of rock that melted and was sprayed out as part of the debris thrown out during the impact. The jumbled floor of the crater is made of rock broken during the impact mixed with impact melt and soil. It has probably changed little since the crater formed.
Slovenčina: Mladý impaktný kráter na Mesiaci (konkrétne oblasť Balmer basin). Z krátera vybiehajú lúče hornín vyvrhnutých pri dopade, čo je typické na telesách s menšou gravitáciou (pretože väčšia gravitácia nedovolí materiálu doletieť tak ďaleko). Tento záber urobila sonda Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. |
