A 141-m-diameter crater on Bennu, centered at 55.7°N and 62.7°E. White arrows in both frames indicate the crater location. a, PolyCam image 20181202t050321s325_pol_iofl2pan projected onto the shape model. b, The shape model only, colorized by facet radius. The images collected during the spacecraft’s final approach (acquired in early December of 2018), in conjunction with the shape model, were used to identify and measure large craters on Bennu.
