    Yet Miranda sports one of the strangest and most varied landscapes among extraterrestrial bodies, including three large features known as "coronae," which are unique among known objects in our solar system. They are lightly cratered collections of ridges and valleys, separated from the more heavily cratered (and presumably older) terrain by sharp boundaries like mismatched patches on a moth-eaten coat. Miranda's giant fault canyons are as much as 12 times as deep as the Grand Canyon.

    Miranda's Area of Expertise

    Miranda's expertise lies in her peculiar and varied landscape, including the giant fault canyons that are up to 12 times deeper than the Grand Canyon.

    My simple pleasures

    I find joy in the simple things, like the stark contrast between my coronae and the older, cratered terrain. It's like a beautiful, cosmic patchwork quilt.
