Eros Craters And Boulders
The NEAR Shoemaker spacecraft has imaged the entire surface of asteroid 433 Eros. This view, taken on July 7 from 50 kilometers away, is about 1.8 kilometers across. It shows the walls and rims of two large, overlapping impact craters. Massive boulders, possibly debris from the impacts, are perched along the crater edges.
