Mercury and Lobate Scarps

Because mercury is so small and has a relatively low mass compared to earth, venus, et cetera, it has cooled down quite a bit. And as it compresses and crumples down, it creates these faulting areas where the land can slide up on top of each other. Its plisit madrat. I don't know why i find it so ridiculous, but even you snorted at the name, dossom. It's also just a cute name.
