Tags: Crater.

Qi Baishi is a crater on Mercury. It has an asymmetric pattern of ejecta rays which formed by an object travelling to the east or to the west and impacting Mercury’s surface at a very low incidence angle. However Qi Baishi crater is still roughly circular which is in contrast to the elongated shape of neighboring Hovnatanian crater.
