Unusual Cratering on Saturn's Dione

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Saturn's moon Dione is tidally locked, so one side always leads its orbit and the other trails. The leading side should have more craters from impacts, but this image shows the opposite. The trailing side is more heavily cratered. This suggests a complex history for Dione, perhaps involving a 90-degree reorientation.
