Primes

• Geometric Chronology
  • In planetary science, crater-counting chronology dates a surface from overlapping craters — a crater that cuts another postdates it.

    This sourceEstablishes crater-counting chronology: a crater cutting another postdates it, and crater density (calibrated to radiometric sample ages) dates a surface; airless/old surfaces retain craters as a preserving record.
