Verona Rupes, right of center.[1]
Verona Rupes is a cliff on Miranda, a moon of Uranus.[2] The cliff face has been estimated to be from 5 kilometers (3 mi)[1] to 10 kilometers (6.2 mi)[3] high, which makes it the tallest known cliff in the solar system.[4]
It may have been created by a major impact, which caused the moon to disrupt and reassemble,[2][4] or by the crust rifting.[5]
