If NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover someday reaches the summit of Mount Sharp at the center of Gale Crater, it may be able to see a 1-mile wide depression now forever to be known — at least on one map — as collectSPACE crater. “Named in celebration of the thousands of space history enthusiasts who comprise the collectSPACE community,” the crater was recorded on Uwingu’s new website, which seeks to name all of the Red Planet’s 500,000 unlabeled craters, while raising funds for grants in space exploration, research and education.
