Blunck Crater

Blunck Crater

Down in Blunck Crater
The remnants of a landslide in this part of Blunck Crater is the most interesting feature here, but there is also a lot of diversity of bedrock brightness and the nighttime IR is quite strong. Small scale variations may also be interesting at high resolution. Blunck is approximately 62 kilometers in diameter and is named after Jurgen Blunck, a German historian.
