Occator Crater, Ceres. Composite satellite image showing a network of fractures in the southeastern wall and floor of the Occator crater on the dwarf planet Ceres. Ceres is the largest object in the asteroid belt, which lies between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. This cracking may have resulted from the cooling of impact melt, or when the crater floor was uplifted after the crater formed. Imaged by the Framing Camera on NASA's Dawn space probe. | |
