Artemis Corona

Named after Artemis, the Greek goddess of hunting, it is the largest corona on Venus, with a diameter of 2,600 kilometers (1,600 mi).

Artemis is an unusual feature on Venus as it has been interpreted to be the site of plate tectonics operating on a regional scale.

The differences between the highest and the lowest point within Artemis are in the order of 7.5 kilometers (4.7 mi).

Retrograde subduction is interpreted to occur at the circular arc belts of Artemis Chasmata.
