Received 5 January 2011 Laboratory experiments and 3D numerical simulations demonstrate that this threshold angle decreases as the Received in revised form 7 June 2011 ratio of crater size to impactor size increases. According to impact cratering scaling laws, this implies that Accepted 22 July 2011 elliptical craters occur at steeper impact angles as crater size or target strength increases. Using a standard Available online 27 August 2011 size-frequency distribution for asteroids impacting the terrestrial planets we estimate the fraction of elliptical Editor: T. Spohn craters as a function of crater size on the Moon, Mars, Earth, Venus and Mercury. In general, the expected fraction of elliptical craters is ~2–4% for craters between 5 and 100-km in diameter, consistent with the Keywords: observed population of elliptical craters on Mars. At larger crater sizes both our model and observations impact craters suggest a dramatic increase in the fraction of elliptical craters with increasing crater diameter.

Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. EUGENE M. SHOEMAKER April 28, 1928–July 18, 1997 Elected to the NAS, 1980 Eugene M. Shoemaker, a leading light of the United States Geological Survey, died on July 18, 1997, in a tragic motoring accident near Alice Springs, Australia. Gene was doing what he loved most—studying meteorite impact craters in the field with his wife of 46 years, Carolyn (Spellman) Shoemaker. Carolyn was badly injured in the accident but recovered. Gene is survived by his three chil- dren, Christine Woodard, Linda Salazar, and Patrick Shoe- maker. On July 31, 1999, some of his ashes were taken to the Moon on the Lunar Prospector space probe, and to this date he is the only person whose remains have been Shoemaker. Photograph by Carolyn laid to rest on the Moon. The brass casing of his memorial capsule bears a quotation from Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet: By Susan W. Kieffer And, when he shall die Take him and cut him out in little stars And he will make the face of heaven so fine That all the world will be in love with night And pay no worship to the garish sun. Gene’s enquiring mind spanned an unusually large range of scientific disciplines— petrology, astronomy, stratigraphy, field geology, volcanology, impact dynamics, and paleomagnetism, to name a few. From his work, whole new fields of shock metamorphic studies, impact crater modeling, and stratigraphic relations on planetary bodies evolved.

    UZMA ASLAM KHAN My Mother Is a Lunar Crater y mother is a lunar crater by the name of Al Biruni. The cra- Mter lies on the far side of the moon, away from Earth. It can only be glimpsed by a loving eye when the moon sways. As I watch my mother on our way to the science museum, I want to tell her the name for this slow oscillation: lunar libration, from our zodiac sign Libra, Latin for scales. She sits in the passenger seat, tense, nodding very slightly from the tremors that doctors say are nothing serious, her right hand clutching the armrest, her left clutching prayer beads. A libration, I want to say, permits us to peer just beyond the moon’s eastern edge. Even then, however, Al Biruni appears only in pro- file, never head-on. “You drive well,” she says after a time. Moments earlier she had sucked in her breath at the speed of cars at that tricky inter- section between Springfield and Chicopee where interstates merge and the GPS says to turn right and then left and the lanes go from three to two to four. I was in the wrong lane and the man passing us gave me the finger. Because she was there, I did not give him the finger back. “How scary,” she had said, releasing her breath. That’s when she began to clutch the armrest and the beads. “Thank you,” I reply. This is her first time visiting me in western Massachusetts. This is my second time seeing her since the deaths of my father and sister in Pakistan.

Menzel, Principal Investigator to c National Aeronautics and Space Administration Office of Scientific and Technical Information (Code US) Washington, D. C. 20546 17 August 1970 e This is the second of three reports to be submitted to NASA under Grant NGR 22-007-194, concerned with the assignment I of names to craters on the far-side of the Moon. As noted in the first report to NASA under the subject grant, the Working Group on Lunar Nomenclature (of Commission 17 of the International Astronomical Union, IAU) originally assigned the selected names to features on the far-side of the Moon in a . semi-alphabetic arrangement. This plan was criticized, however, by lunar cartographers as (1) unesthetic, and as (2) offering a practical danger of confusion between similar nearby names, par- ticularly in oral usage by those using the maps in lunar exploration. At its meeting in Paris on June 20 --et seq., the Working Group accepted the possible validity of the second criticism above and reassigned the names in a more or less random order, as preferred by the cartographers. They also deleted from the original list, submitted in the first report to NASA under the subject grant, several names that too closely resembled others for convenient oral usage. The Introduction to the attached booklet briefly reviews the solutions reached by the Working Group to this and several other remaining problems, including that of naming lunar features for living astronauts.

BARLOW Department of Physics and Astronomy, Northern Arizona University, NAU Box 6010, Flagstaff, Arizona 86011–6010, USA E-mail: [email protected] (Received 20 October 2005; revision accepted 20 May 2006) Abstract–Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) and Mars Odyssey data are being used to revise the Catalog of Large Martian Impact Craters. Analysis of data in the revised catalog provides new details on the distribution and morphologic details of 6795 impact craters in the northern hemisphere of Mars. This report focuses on the ejecta morphologies and central pit characteristics of these craters. The results indicate that single-layer ejecta (SLE) morphology is most consistent with impact into an ice-rich target. Double-layer ejecta (DLE) and multiple-layer ejecta (MLE) craters also likely form in volatile-rich materials, but the interaction of the ejecta curtain and target-produced vapor with the thin Martian atmosphere may be responsible for the large runout distances of these ejecta.
