Tooting is a multi-layered fluidized ejecta crater (a type of rampart crater) at 23.1°N 207.1°E in Amazonis Planitia (Amazonis quadrangle) due west of the volcano Olympus Mons on Mars. . It was identified by planetary geologist Peter Mouginis-Mark in September 2004. Scientists estimate that its age is on the order of hundreds of thousands of years which is relatively young for a Martian crater. A later study confirms this order of magnitude estimate.
