    Its walls are approximately 5 km (3 mi) high, [4] parts of its floor are 10–12 km (6–7 mi) deep, and its central peak rises 6–8 km (3 + 1 ⁄ 2 –5 mi) above the crater floor. [2] If there were a crater of an equivalent scale on Earth it would be over 4,000 km (2,500 mi) in diameter – wider than Canada – with walls over 200 km (120 ...

    Mimas's low density, 1.15 g/cm 3, indicates that it is composed mostly of water ice with only a small amount of rock, and study of Mimas's motion suggests that it may have a liquid ocean beneath its surface ice. The surface of Mimas is heavily cratered and shows little signs of recent geological activity.
