Burroughs Crater lies at latitude 72.5S and longitude 243.1W. It is in the Mare Australe quadrangle and is 104.0 kilometres (64.6 mi) in diameter.[1] It is named after Edgar Rice Burroughs, an American science fiction novelist who wrote a series of fantasy novels Mars Science Fiction set on Mars.

An ice deposit in Burroughs Crater contains strong evidence that recent Martian climate is influenced by changes in the planet's orbit and axial tilt.[2] [3] [4]
