a Azimuthally averaged profiles of the surface relief and crust-mantle interface (derived from GRAIL gravity data33) for the pre-Nectarian impact basins Australe (dashed line), Nubium (dash-dot line), and Fecunditatis (solid line) compared to the likely similar sized, but younger, Nectaris (solid line) and Orientale (dashed line) basins b. Arrows denote previously mapped main and/or peak (inner) rim (observed or suspected)24. See, Supplementary Table 1 for details.
