  • Abstract
    Using images and laser ranging data from the NEAR-Shoemaker mission, we map lineaments on the surface of Eros in order to investigate the relationship between surface morphology and interior structure. Several sets of lineations are clearly related to visible impact craters, while others suggest that different parts of the asteroid may have undergone different stress histories. Some of these sets infer internal structure, at least on a local level. This structure may derive from Erosʹ parent body and suggest, although largely coherent, Erosʹ interior may have portions that have not undergone a common history.
