Summary

Description	English: Exaggerated color composite showing Seuss crater at left on Mercury. All other craters are unnamed as of August 2023, but the large crater below right of center is the location of a dark spot as identified by Xiao, et al. (2013). The dark spot coincides with the central peak complex of the crater. Approximate color representation combining three images acquired by MESSENGER Wide Angle Camera (EW1047150499G, EW1047150503F, EW1047150507I) with I (996.2 nm), G (748.7 nm), and F (433.2 nm) filters. Combined in GIMP software as RGB (Red-Green-Blue). Statistics for I image: Max Emission Angle: 24.203924911142 Max Incidence Angle: 23.247044808604 Max Phase Angle: 33.608472169645 Mean Ground Resolution: 448.75281180055 Min Emission Angle: 0.23085575561721 Min Incidence Angle: 11.760062859472 Min Phase Angle: 22.788414863924
