Mercury's Lennon crater, named for Beatle John Lennon, as seen from NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft.
Imagine that.
John Lennon is getting a tribute on Mercury.
The late Beatles legend is among 10 famous people who are having craters on the planet closest to the sun named after them by the International Astronomical Union.
The IAU, which is in charge of planetary and satellite nomenclature, named the craters in honor of "deceased artists, musicians, painters, and authors who have made outstanding or fundamental contributions to their field and have been recognized as art historically significant figures for more than 50 years."
