NASA announced the conclusion of Dawn's mission operations was Oct. 31, 2018, when the spacecraft depleted its hydrazine.

The center of Dantu Crater is located at about 24.3 degrees north latitude and 138.2 degrees east longitude.

Dantu Crater is named after the Ghanan god associated with the planting of the corn.
