Quadrangle of Henie

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Quadrangle of Henie is one of the 62 quadrilateral defined by the cartography of Venus approved by the International Astronomical Union.[1]

On the scale maps of 1 / 5,000,000 (identified by the code V-58) it includes the part of the surface of Venus located in the latitude between 50 ° and 75 ° S and a length between 120 ° and 180 ° E.[2]

It owes its name to Henie's crater.[2]
