Summary

Description
English: Date acquired: March 30, 2011

Image Mission Elapsed Time (MET): 209943738
Image ID: 67364
Instrument: Narrow Angle Camera (NAC) of the Mercury Dual Imaging System (MDIS)
Center Latitude: -70.62°
Center Longitude: 292.0° E
Resolution: 150 meters/pixel
Scale: Camoes has a diameter of 70 kilometers (43 miles)

Of Interest: MESSENGER's near-polar orbit about Mercury, in contrast to the mission's three equatorial flybys of the planet, enables MDIS to view Mercury's polar regions for the first time. This image, located in Mercury's south polar region, shows the crater Camões near the center of the image. A scarp crosses the floor and wall of Camões, in a pattern similar to that seen at Thakur crater. Camões takes its name from the Portuguese poet Luiz Vas de Camões (c. 1524-1580). The crater extending out of the upper left corner of the image is Okyo, named for the Japanese painter Maruyama Okyo (1733-1795).
