Wow, the biggest crater on Phoebe is called "Jason". biggrin.gif

Some of those craters, like "Euphemus", look a lot like the ones on Hyperion. But most of them don't.

All craters on Phoebe get their names from the "Argonauts" from "Jason And The Argonauts" story. The largest crater is given the most inportant Argonaut, and so on until the names of 24 craters have been filled with the most important 24 "Argonauts".

All names are at provisional status "Level 3".
