Hussey (crater)

Hussey Crater is an impact crater in the Phaethontis quadrangle on Mars at 53.8° S and 126.7° W. and is 99.0 km in diameter. Its name was approved in 1973, and it was named after William Hussey (astronomer). Dunes are visible in the northern part of the crater floor. Pictures below show the dunes from a wide view and then eventually show greatly enlarged view with HiRISE.
