Albedo features on Mercury refer to the variations in reflectivity on the planet's surface, which are often due to differences in composition, texture, and geological history. Mercury has a variety of albedo features that have been identified, mainly from observations by spacecraft like Mariner 10 and MESSENGER.
Mercury, the closest planet to the Sun, has a surface marked by craters due to its lack of atmosphere, which means that impacts from meteoroids and comets over billions of years have been well-preserved. Here is a list of some notable craters on Mercury: 1. **Caloris Basin** - One of the largest impact basins in the solar system, approximately 1,550 km (960 mi) in diameter.
