@wukaimi @NASA_Orion They're probably fault-bend folds driven *in part* by lunar contraction, but mainly by subsidence of the expansive lava flows. Now if you're interested in proper extraterrestrial fold and thrust belts, might I draw your attention to:

Oh, Mercurio. Sabía que eras extraño, pero no tanto http://t.co/jUiTiRb1L5

I can think of a dozen #scifi #shortstory ideas from this bit about Mercury. Can you? http://t.co/HHTjrBQHMZ

New data from the Messenger satellite shows that Mercury has shrunk ~7km since its formation! http://t.co/QV8tTZGBlA http://t.co/whw9ILU1Rd

Mercury's contraction much greater than thought [ca.7km smaller than when crust formed >4Gya] http://t.co/QlLvcr3u58 http://t.co/1yMCM9fQr4
During the past 4 billion years, Mercury's diameter has decreased by 7-14 kilometers, which is pretty neat. http://t.co/JDIMHnEPUh
