Natrun Patera (Ganymede)

Wadi in Egypt, site of ancient monasteries, proximal to site of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s aircraft crash that inspired the novella “The Little Prince”.

A patera is an irregular crater, or a complex one with scalloped edges. Usually the dish-shaped depression atop a volcano. On Ganymede they are named after dry wadis (channels) of the Fertile Crescent region.
