Khusrau (crater)

Khusrau is an impact crater on the anti-Saturn hemisphere of Saturn's moon Enceladus. Khusrau was first observed in Cassini images during that mission's March 2005 flyby of Enceladus. It is located at 3.8° South Latitude, 185.5° West Longitude, and is 12.3 kilometers across.^[1] Since the crater's formation, numerous criss-crossing fractures cut across the crater, forming canyons several hundred meters deep along the crater's rim.
