Description
Berlage lies close in the central regions of the South Pole Aitken Basin (SPA-B) -- a 2500 kilometre-wide basin of the pre-Nectarian period (~ 4.6 to 3.92 bn years) whose centre is approximately at 54.2S, 168.7W. Berlage is barely perceptable in the left image above, where it lies amongst the more fresher-looking craters, Bellingsgauzen (Bellingshasen - 63 km) of the Nectarian period (~ 3.92 to 3.85 bn years) to the north, and Cabannes J (34 km) to the northwest -- both of which have had some damaging effect on Berlage's north-western rim. Numerous small craters ranging from 5 to 10 kilometres across cover most of its floor, with some larger ones ranging from 10 to 20 kilometres across in the north-eastern section of its rim. Because of Berlage's central location to SPA-B, the mare material on which it lies has gone through a transition in material from flat floor to a rise in its rim. - JohnMoore2
