This 17.4 kilometers dome in Navka Planitia shows collapsed margins and landslide deposits in both the northwest and the northeast quadrants. The landslide deposits show hummocky surfaces that extend up to 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) out on the plains. The dome is about 1.86 kilometers (1.2 miles) high and has a slope of about 23°. In general, the scale of lava domes and collapse features on Venus is orders of magnitude larger than that on Earth.
