Discovery Rupes is an escarpment on Mercury approximately 650 kilometers (400 mi) long and 2 kilometres (6,562 ft) high, located at latitude 56.3 S and longitude 38.3 W. It was formed by a thrust fault, thought to have occurred due to the shrinkage of the planet's core as it cooled over time. The scarp cuts through Rameau crater. It was discovered by Mariner 10. The rupes are named after HMS Discovery, the ship used by explorer James Cook on his third voyage.

- La Discovery Rupes è una scarpata situata sulla superficie del pianeta Mercurio, alta circa 2 km, e lunga approssimativamente 400 km. La sua origine è da ricondursi ad una probabilmente originatasi durante la fase di contrazione del nucleo mercuriano per via del suo progressivo raffreddamento. Il cratere Rameau appare tagliato in due dalla scarpata. (it)
