This 48-kilometer-diameter "complex" crater with its radar-dark flat floor and its central peak of hills is one of-the three similar craters mapped in the "crater farm area." The crater is located at latitude 26.35 degrees south, longitude 337.25 degrees east. The radar-bright ejecta deposits are nearly symmetric around the crater except for their absence in a small sector on the northwest rim (upper left side). A thin, radar-dark, flow-like deposit has emanated from the rim deposits on the south side and extends to the southwest. The narrow, radar-bright bands outlining the deposit are thought to result from the piling up and roughening of the material along its sides. Danilova, the name proposed for this crater, honors a Russian ballet dancer. Proposed names for all features on planetary bodies are provisional until formally adopted by the International Astronomical Union.
