Tycho Brahe (Martian crater) the karge Kepler, nearly northeast is Electris Mons. Tycho Brahe (Martian crater) Tycho Brahe is a nearly ovular crater on Mars named after the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe (1546–1601). It is located in the Cerberus hemisphere around 49.8° south and 213.9° west, in an area which is south of the Martz crater and east of the Hellas Basin. It measures approximately 105 kilometers in diameter from east to west. The name was adopted by IAU's Working Group for Planetary System Nomenclature in 1973. The crater is crossed by Eridania Scopulus, an escarpment. Other nearby named craters are Huggins to the
Stellar halo be investigated in much more detail; this data has been used to postulate a triaxial or oblate halo. More recent studies have found the halo to be flattened with a broken power law radius dependence; evidence for triaxiality is unclear. As a result of their faint brightness, observations of stellar halos in distant galaxies have required very long exposure times, the stacking of data from numerous galaxies to obtain averaged properties, or observing only the resolved stellar populations. Individual resolved stars in stellar halos can only be measured in the Milky Way and Andromeda. The furthest stellar halos detected are
