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 nucleosynthesis the elements are contained within the star. Later in its life, a low-mass star will slowly eject its atmosphere via stellar wind, forming a planetary nebula, while a higher–mass star will eject mass via a sudden catastrophic event called a supernova. The term supernova nucleosynthesis is used to describe the creation of elements during the evolution and explosion of a pre-supernova massive star (12–35 times the mass of the sun). Those massive stars are the most prolific source of new isotopes from carbon () to nickel (). The advanced sequence of burning fuels is driven by gravitational collapse and its
