Mercury is a planet dominated by contractional features at a global scale. The age deter-mination of these features will permit to estimate the rate of global contraction and whether limits could be placed on when the contraction occurred. This will give us new clues to better understanding the thermal evolution of the planet.

Abstract
Mercury is a planet dominated by contractional features at a global scale. The age deter-mination of these features will permit to estimate the rate of global contraction and whether limits could be placed on when the contraction occurred. This will give us new clues to better understanding the thermal evolution of the planet.File in questo prodotto:
