Tags: Crater.

Yuty is a crater on Mars in Chryse Planitia. The crater is about 20 km (12 mi) in diameter and is surrounded by complex ejecta lobes which are a distinctive characteristic of martian impact craters. Many craters at equatorial and mid-latitudes on Mars have this form of ejecta morphology which is thought to arise when the impacting object melts ice in the subsurface.
