Venus. Synthetic aperture radar map of the surface of Venus, showing the 48-kilometre wider Dnilova complex impact crater. Rough areas appear bright, flat ones dark. This crater is located at 26,35 degrees south and 337,25 degrees east, and consists of a flat floor and a central peak. This map was created using data gathered by the Magellan radar-mapping spacecraft.
