Abstract Impact cratering is an abrupt, spectacular process that occurs on any world with a solid surface. On Earth, these craters are easily eroded or destroyed through endogenic processes. The Moon and Mercury, however, lack a significant atmosphere, meaning craters on these worlds remain intact longer, geologically. In this thesis, remote-sensing techniques were used to investigate impact melt emplacement about Mercury’s fresh, complex craters. For complex lunar craters, impact melt is preferentially ejected from the lowest rim elevation, implying topographic control. On Venus, impact melt is preferentially ejected downrange from the impact site, implying impactor-direction control. Mercury, despite its heavily-cratered surface, trends more like Venus than like the Moon.

We have developed a scheme to process large numbers, typically more than 6000, images by photogrammetric techniques, which include, multiple image matching, pyramid strategy, and bundle block adjustments. In this paper, we present models for map quadrangles of the southern hemisphere H11, H12, H13, and H14. 1.

In particular, the WAC The MErcury Surface, Space ENviorment, GEochemistry, and camera and NAC camera were demonstrated to show a linear Ranging (MESSENGER) spacecraft entered orbit about increase in focal length by up to 0.10% over the typical range of Mercury in March 2011 to carry out a comprehensive temperatures (-20 to +20 °C) during operation, which causes a topographic mapping of the planet.

Bott1 , A. Doressoundiram1, F. Zambon2 , C. Carli2 , L. Guzzetta2 , D. Perna3 , produce an eight-color mosaic of the and F. Capaccioni2 Shakespeare quadrangle • We identified spectral units from the 1LESIA-Observatoire de Paris-CNRS-Sorbonne Université-Université Paris-Diderot, Meudon, France, 2Istituto di maps of Shakespeare 3 • We selected two regions of high Astrofisica e Planetologia Spaziali-INAF, Rome, Italy, Osservatorio Astronomico di Roma-INAF, Monte Porzio interest as potential targets for the Catone, Italy BepiColombo mission Abstract The MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry and Ranging mission showed the Correspondence to: N. Bott, surface of Mercury with an accuracy never reached before. The morphological and spectral analyses [email protected] performed thanks to the data collected between 2008 and 2015 revealed that the Mercurian surface differs from the surface of the Moon, although they look visually very similar. The surface of Mercury is Citation: characterized by a high morphological and spectral variability, suggesting that its stratigraphy is also Bott, N., Doressoundiram, A., heterogeneous. Here, we focused on the Shakespeare (H-03) quadrangle, which is located in the northern Zambon, F., Carli, C., Guzzetta, L., hemisphere of Mercury.
