Voyager 1 image of Valhalla, a multi-ring impact structure 3,800 km in diameter. The largest impact features on Callisto's surface are multi-ring basins. [13] [61] Two are enormous. Valhalla is the largest, with a bright central region 600 km in diameter, and rings extending as far as 1,800 km from the center (see figure). [63]

Valhalla is the largest multi-ring basin on Callisto and in the Solar System (with diameter up to 3,800 km). [4] It was discovered by the Voyager probes in 1979–80 and is located on the leading hemisphere of Callisto, in its Jupiter facing quadrant slightly to the north of the equator (at about 18°N latitude and 57°W longitude).
A smaller multi-ring structure is superposed on the northern part of Asgard. It is called Utgard (also from Norse mythology) and measures around 600 km (370 mi) in diameter. [2] Utgard is the fourth largest multi-ring feature on Callisto. A substantial part of the central region of Utgard is covered with deposits from the relatively young Burr ...
