Description

Bhabha lies close to 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. Aged as Nectarian (~ 3.92 to 3.85 bn years), the crater looks relatively fresh with sharp-looking terraced walls all around -- except for its eastern section where the rim has been altered by movement of material (or is it impact-related?). The floor is flat showing signs of a dark-ish material in the south-eastern portion, and the whole inner area is topped off with a series of cental peaks that open towards the north. - JohnMoore2 JohnMoore2
