Image PIA 12581: Greek Drama
A crescent of Tethys displays two of the moon's large craters.

Penelope Crater can be seen at the top left. Antinous Crater is in the bottom left, in the far southern latitudes. Features on Tethys are named after characters and places from Homer's Greek epics. See PIA 08149 to learn more.
