Mare Australe [SEP] located on astronomical body
Mare Australe
Mare Australe (the "Southern Sea") is a lunar mare located in the southeastern hemisphere of the Moon. It is 997 kilometers in diameter, overlapping the near and far sides of the Moon. Smooth, dark volcanic basalt lines the bottom of the mare. The Australe basin was formed in the Pre-Nectarian epoch, while the mare material inside formed in the Upper Imbrian epoch.
Unlike most of the lunar maria, Mare Australe has an uneven surface that is marked by a number of crater
Liais (crater)
Liais is an impact crater in the Mare Australe quadrangle of Mars, located at 75.4°S latitude and 252.8°W longitude. It measures 132.0 kilometers in diameter and was named after Emmanuel Liais. The name was approved in 1973, by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) Working Group for Planetary System Nomenclature (WGPSN).
Liais Crater displays layers on its floor. Many places on Mars show rocks arranged in layers. The study of layering on Mars greatly expanded when the Mars Global Surveyor
