Stickney Crater
Stickney Crater, on Mars's moon Phobos, is named for Chloe Angeline Stickney Hall, wife of Phobos's discoverer, Asaph Hall. Over nine kilometers across, it's nearly half the moon's diameter. This HiRISE camera image shows the crater in enhanced color, revealing how close the impact came to shattering the small moon.
