Summary

Description
English: Date acquired: February 25, 2013

Image Mission Elapsed Time (MET): 4159492 Image ID: 3589683 Instrument: Narrow Angle Camera (NAC) of the Mercury Dual Imaging System (MDIS) Center Latitude: -13.85° Center Longitude: 26.56° E Resolution: 71 meters/pixel Scale: Berkel crater is approximately 24 km (15 mi.) in diameter. Incidence Angle: 30.3° Emission Angle: 29.3° Phase Angle: 52.6°

Of Interest: Berkel crater, named for Turkish painter and printmaker Sabri Berkel, is a complex crater that sits inside of the larger Ellington basin. Berkel's interior contains material that is darker than the surrounding terrain, as well as hollows, indicating the presence of dark material at depth.

This image was acquired as a targeted set of stereo images. Targeted stereo observations are acquired at resolutions much higher than that of the 200-meter/pixel stereo base map. These targets acquired with the NAC enable the detailed topography of Mercury's surface to be determined for a local area of interest.
