Abstract

Geological mapping of Mercury is crucial to build an understanding of the history of the planet and to set the context for BepiColombo’s observations [1]. Geo-logical mapping of the Debussy quadrangle (H-14) is now underway as part of a program to map the entire planet at a scale of 1:3M using MESSENGER data [2]. The quadrangle is located in the southern hemisphere of Mercury at 0o – 90o E and 22.5o – 65o S. This will be the first high resolution map of the quadrangle as it was not imaged by Mariner 10.
