Arandas (crater) km in diameter) they usually have a central peak. The peak is caused by a rebound of the crater floor following the impact. Sometimes craters expose layers that were buried. Rocks from deep underground are tossed onto the surface. Hence, craters can show us what lies deep under the surface. Arandas (crater) Arandas Crater is a crater in the Mare Acidalium quadrangle of Mars, located 42.77° North and 15.17° West. It is 24.76 km in diameter and is named after the town of Arandas in Mexico. South is the scalloped terrain of Cydonia Labyrinthus and further south is Cydonia Colles,
Rochechouart crater Rochechouart crater The Rochechouart crater is an impact crater. The initial crater morphology has been lost by erosion and there is no crater visible on site. The proper term to designate what remains of the Rochechouart impact crater is Rochechouart impact structure. The term “astrobleme” (wound of star in greek) introduced by R. Dietz since 1947 together with shatter cones as a symptomatic finger print for identifying an eroded impact crater on Earth, is also used to designate the Rochechouart impact structure. In 2008 the French State acknowledged the heritage value of the Rochechouart impact creating the “Réserve Naturelle Nationale
