Global Resurfacing of Venus
The impact cratering record on Venus is unique among the terrestrial planets. Fully 84% of the craters are in pristine condition, and only 12% are fractured. Remarkably, only 2.5% of the craters and…

Lava Flows in Mare Imbrium: Geologic Evaluation from Apollo Orbital Photography
A study of Apollo photographs indicates that all Eratosthenian age mare deposits in the Imbrium basin consist of extensive lava flows from a single eruptive source region bounded by 18 to 23 N and 28…
Classification and time of formation of Martian channels based on Viking data
Fluviatile and volcanic Martian channels, first discovered on Mariner 9 pictures, have been reexamined by using Viking orbital photography. The superior discrimination of the Viking photographs,…
