Yuty (Mars)

Named after the Town in Paraguay.

Yuty is a crater on Mars in Chryse Planitia. The crater is about 20 km 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. Liquid water in the ejected material forms a muddy slurry that flows along the surface, producing the characteristic lobe shapes. (wikipedia entry)

A crater is a circular depression likely created by an impact event. On Mars large craters are named after deceased scientists, writers and others who have contributed to the lore of Mars. Small creaters (less than 60km) are named after small towns and villages.
