A Giant Gouge on Asteroid Eros

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Asteroid 433 Eros poses several riddles. NASA's NEAR spacecraft began orbiting the 30-kilometer space rock last week, and new pictures are now being beamed back to Earth regularly. Scientists are contemplating, for example, the cause of the giant gouge in the middle of Eros. Intriguing internal features include grooves oriented parallel to the asteroid's long axis.
