Image Mission Elapsed Time (MET): 24470528, 24960452, 24470516 Image ID: 5033545, 5068359, 5033542 Instrument: Wide Angle Camera (WAC) of the Mercury Dual Imaging System (MDIS) WAC filters: 9, 7, 6 (996, 748, 433 nanometers) in red, green, and blue Center Latitude: 23.72° Center Longitude: 179.1° E Resolution: 260 meters/pixel Scale: The larger crater near the top of the image is approximately 54 km (33.5 mi.) in diameter. Incidence Angle: 24.8° Emission Angle: 8.4° Phase Angle: 33.2°

This area is now known as Slang Faculae. The original NASA caption follows:

Of Interest: Today's image features several craters near the eastern edge of the Caloris basin. The larger craters have excavated low reflectance material, and both have hollows forming within their floors. Reddish deposits that exhibit a spectral signature similar to pyroclastics occur in the northeastern quadrant of this scene, suggesting that this region may have once been the site of explosive volcanism.

This image was acquired as a targeted high-resolution 11-color image set. Acquiring 11-color targets is a new campaign that began in March 2013 and that utilizes all of the WAC's 11 narrow-band color filters. Because of the large data volume involved, only features of special scientific interest are targeted for imaging in all 11 colors.
