Praxiteles is a crater on Mercury. It is one of 110 peak ring basins on Mercury. MESSENGER's high-resolution images obtained during the mission's second Mercury flyby have revealed a number of irregularly shaped depressions on the floor of Praxiteles crater, making it a pit-floor crater. The colors near these depressions in WAC images are similar to those near volcanoes discovered during the mission's first Mercury flyby along the inner edge of the Caloris basin. The similar colors and the association with the irregular depressions (possible volcanic vents) are suggestive of past volcanic activity on the floor of Praxiteles.

  • Praxiteles és un cràter d'impacte en el planeta Mercuri de 198 km de diàmetre. Porta el nom de l'escultor de l'antiga Grècia Praxíteles (c. 370-330 aC), i el seu nom va ser aprovat per la Unió Astronòmica Internacional el 1979. El cràter Praxíteles va ser observat per primera vegada per la sonda espacial Mariner 10. Les imatges d'alta resolució de la sonda espacial MESSENGER obtingudes durant el segon sobrevol de Mercuri han posat de manifest una sèrie de depressions de forma irregular al sòl del cràter de Praxíteles, el que són uns cràters de subsidència. Els colors a prop d'aquestes depressions en imatges WAC són similars a aquelles a prop dels volcans descoberts durant el primer sobrevol de Mercuri al llarg de la vora interior de la . Els colors similars i l'associació amb les depressions irregulars (possibles obertures volcàniques) són indicatius d'activitat volcànica del passat al sòl de Praxíteles. (ca)
