I've seen other examples in HiRISE images of scalloped craters, I ought to dig through and catalog similar crater-forms. Ugh.
At one time I speculated that the radial scalloped rim was due to the Anatolia Features, which were originally seen near Eagle-Endurance craters and are presumably concealed under the dune-sand south of the type area, and have been noted near the southeast rim of Victoria. Attached is an image showing the trends of the Anatolia Features and also the trends of Victoria's scalloped rim (I don't recall if it's mine, I might have purloined that Victoria image from a post). You can see similarities, but you'd need to run stats on the trends to make sense. Presented FWIW. ---Bill -------------------- |
