Relation To Ithaca Chasma
The immense trench called Ithaca Chasma, which approximately follows a great circle with a pole near Odyssues' center, had been hypothesized to have formed as a result of the Odysseus impact. However, a research based on high resolution Cassini images indicated that this is unlikely—the crater counts inside Odysseus appear to be lower than in Ithaca Chasma, indicating that the latter is older than the former.

Famous quotes containing the words relation to and/or relation:
“Light is meaningful only in relation to darkness, and truth presupposes error. It is these mingled opposites which people our life, which make it pungent, intoxicating. We only exist in terms of this conflict, in the zone where black and white clash.”
—Louis Aragon (18971982)
“Skepticism is unbelief in cause and effect. A man does not see, that, as he eats, so he thinks: as he deals, so he is, and so he appears; he does not see that his son is the son of his thoughts and of his actions; that fortunes are not exceptions but fruits; that relation and connection are not somewhere and sometimes, but everywhere and always; no miscellany, no exemption, no anomaly,but method, and an even web; and what comes out, that was put in.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
