Homer is a crater on Mercury. It is one of 110 peak ring basins on Mercury. Deposits of material in and around this crater suggest the possibility of explosive volcanic eruptions at some point in the planet's history. An unnamed crater in northwestern Homer (about 18 km diameter) contains hollows and has dark ejecta. The crater name was approved by the IAU in 1976. The naming of Stark Y crater on the moon, located northwest of Stark, as Homer, was not approved by the IAU. * Mariner 10 image of Homer * * Unnamed crater in northwestern Homer which contains hollows and has dark ejecta.

  • Homer és un cràter d'impacte en el planeta Mercuri de 319 km de diàmetre. Porta el nom del poeta de l'antiga Grècia Homer (segle VIII o IX aC), i el seu nom va ser aprovat per la Unió Astronòmica Internacional el 1976. Els dipòsits de material que hi ha a l'interior i al voltant d'aquest cràter suggereixen la possibilitat d'erupcions volcàniques explosives en algun moment de la història del planeta. (ca)

The crater Handel is to the northeast, and Titian is to the southwest. * Mariner 10 image of Homer * Homer basin is marked with a white circle in the enhanced-color image. Nearby Titian crater is marked with an arrow. * Unnamed crater in northwestern Homer which contains hollows and has dark ejecta. (en)
  • Homer è un cratere d'impatto presente sulla superficie di Mercurio, a 1,26° di latitudine sud e 36,58° di longitudine ovest. Il suo diametro è pari a 319 km. Il cratere è stato battezzato dall'Unione Astronomica Internazionale in onore del poeta epico greco Omero. (it)
  • Гомер (англ. Homer) — 320-километровый ударный кратер, расположенный на Меркурии по координатам 1°00′ ю. ш. 36°30′ з. д. / 1° ю. ш. 36,5° з. д.. Почва вокруг кратера указывает на возможные извержения вулканов в какой-то момент истории планеты. Кратер назван в честь древнегреческого поэта Гомера (VIII век до н. э.) Согласно решению Международного астрономического союза кратеры на Меркурии называют в честь деятелей культуры: писателей, поэтов, художников, скульпторов, композиторов. Кратеры, покрывающие меркурианскую пустыню, появились в ту пору, когда все тела Солнечной системы подвергались мощной метеоритной бомбардировке. Каждый удар метеорита сопровождается взрывом и оставляет воронку — кратер. В отсутствие ветра и водных потоков поверхность остается неизменной уже более 4 млрд. лет. (ru)
