Verona Rupes
Caption NASA:"Could you survive a jump off the tallest cliff in the Solar System? 
Quite possibly. Verona Rupes on Uranus' moon Miranda is estimated to be 20 kilometers deep - ten times the depth of the Earth's Grand Canyon. Given Miranda's low gravity, it would take about 12 minutes for a thrill-seeking adventurer to fall from the top, reaching the bottom at the speed of a racecar -- about 200 Km-per- hour. 
Even so, the fall might be survivable given proper airbag protection. The featured image of Verona Rupes was captured by the passing Voyager 2 Robotic Spacecraft in 1986. 
How the giant cliff was created remains unknown, but is possibly related to a large impact or tectonic surface motion".

una tettonica embrionale poi terminata col rapido raffreddamento della luna?Una singola fossa non basta di certo per poterlo confermare

E' una buona ipotesi. Ma, per capire di pił, dovremmo andare a darci un'occhiata "in loco"...
