Topic: Geological features on Oberon

	Crater
		In the center of craters on Earth a crater lake often accumulates, and in craters formed by meteorites a central island (caused by rebounding crustal rock after the impact) is usually a prominent feature in the lake.
		Daniel Barringer was one of the first to identify a geological structure as an impact crater, the Barringer Meteorite Crater (or the "Meteor Crater") in Arizona, but at the time his ideas were not widely accepted, and when they were, there was no recognition of the fact that Earth impacts are common in geological terms.
		Armed with the knowledge of shock-metamorphic features, Carlyle S. Beals and colleagues at the Dominion Observatory in Canada, and Wolf von Engelhardt of the University of Tuebingen in West Germany began a methodical search for "impact structures".

		Features produced by the wind include long streaks that extend behind obstacles such as low-lying ridges and small volcanic shields on the planet's plains.
		The most distinctive volcanic features on Venus are coronae (Figure 36.13), large circular structures with a slightly raised interior surrounded by a low circular ridge and a trough.
		Features found at plate boundaries on Earth also occur on Venus, such as deep asymmetrical troughs associated with subduction zones and rifts typical of spreading centers.

	Oberon NSW geological map sheet 8830 1:100 000:- Map 100 - Geological
		The data on 1:100 000 geological maps have be gathered from mission-specific fieldwork and various other sources that are generally detailed on the face of the map, or in the accompanying documentation.
		For maps produced in the last 20 years from air photography and satellite images, most geological features should be accurate to within one or two millimetres on the face of the map (100-200 metres on the ground).
		The geologists engaged in geological mapping generally go to a great deal of trouble to ensure that the geological information portrayed on the face of their maps is logically consistant.

		Selenography is the study of the surface and physical features of the Moon, especially the mapping of the features according to the Moon's latitude and longitude.
		The major Lunar mare, Impact crater s, and mountain ranges of the Moon are the features that are studied and mapped in selenography.
		Selenography, the study of the physical features of the Moon, officially began in 1779 when Johann Hieronymus Schröter started making meticulous observations and measurements of the lunar features.

	ScienceDaily: Impact crater (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		A number of researchers, most notably Eugene M. Shoemaker, conducted detailed studies of the craters that provided clear evidence that they had been created by impacts, identifying the shock-metamorphic effects uniquely associated with impacts, of which the most familiar is Shocked quartz.
		Armed with the knowledge of shock-metamorphic features, Carlyle S. Beals and colleagues at the Dominion Observatory, (Victoria, British Columbia, Canada), and Wolf von Engelhardt of the University of Tübingen in Germany began a methodical search for "impact structures".
		Note: it is reported in the scientific literature that some "shock" features, such as small shatter cones, which are often reported as being associated only with impact events, have been found in terrestrial volcanic ejecta.

		In the center is a sharp, moutainous rise with a double-peak that ascends 1.5 kilometers above the crater floor.
		By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater mid-point that is closest to Pythagoras crater.

		Image:Miranda scarp.jpg Miranda's surface may be mostly water ice, with the low density body being made of silicate rock and organic compounds.
		Miranda's surface is criss-crossed by huge canyons up to 10 kilometers (6 miles) deep, with patchwork regions of broken terrain indicating intense geological activity in the moon's past.

		0 kPa } Oberon (oe'-bur-on) is the outermost of the major moons of the planet Uranus.
		The name "Oberon" and the names of all four satellites of Uranus then known were suggested by Herschel's son John Herschel in 1852 at the request of William Lassell, who had discovered Ariel and Umbriel the year before ([http:/adsabs.harvard.edu/full/seri/AN.../0034/0000169.000.html]).

	Titania (moon) - Free net encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Although its interior composition is uncertain, one model suggests that Titania is composed of roughly 50% water ice, 30% silicate rock, and 20% methane-related organic compounds.
		A major surface feature is a huge canyon that dwarfs the scale of the Grand Canyon on Earth and is in the same class as the Valles Marineris on Mars or Ithaca Chasma on Saturn's moon Tethys.
		On September 8, 2001, Titania occulted a faint star; this was an opportunity to both refine its diameter and ephemeris, and to detect any extant atmosphere.

	search.com - Impact crater
		An impact crater (impact basin or sometimes crater) is a circular depression on a surface, usually referring to a planet, moon, asteroid, or other celestial body, caused by a collision of a smaller body (meteorite) with the surface.
		In the center of craters on Earth a crater lake often accumulates, and a central island or peak (caused by rebounding crustal rock after the impact) is usually a prominent feature in the lake.
		High-temperature rock types, including laminated and welded blocks of sand, and tektites, or glassy spatters of molten rock.

		The new findings add to the story of a body that has undergone multiple episodes of geologic activity spanning a considerable portion of its lifetime.
		"These tectonic features define a boundary that isolates the young, south polar terrains from older terrains on Enceladus," noted Dr. Paul Helfenstein, an associate of the imaging team also at Cornell University.
