What is the largest impact basin in the solar system?
South Pole-Aitken basin - Moon - Diameter: 2,500 km http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_crater#Largest_named_craters_in_the_Solar_System --Geoffrey A. Landis
What is the deepest crater?
The largest impact basin on the Moon is the far-side South Pole-Aitken, which is 1,400 miles (2,250 km) in diameter and on average 39,000 ft (12,000 m) deep below its rim. This is the largest and deepest such crater known in the Solar System.

Is the south pole-aitken basin the largest and deepest depression found thus far in the solar system?
South Pole Aitken Basin (diameter 2500km) is not the largest known impact crater. That distinction lies with Utopia Planitia Basin (3500km) on Mars. However, SPA is the deepest known impact basin in the Solar System at 13 kilometers. If proven, the hypothesized Borealis basin, on Mars, would be the largest impact basis, at more than 10000 km in diameter.
What is the name of the basin located at the south pole?
The name of the continent at the South Pole is Antarctica.
Why might the south pole-aitken basin be a good place for a solar-powered moon colony?
i think its because the ice at the platue which is on the moon had been just discovered sunlight in that area..
What is the name of the Moon's largest impact crater?
The South Pole-Aitken basin (not "Aitken crater") on the far side of the moon, at 1,600 miles across, is not only the largest known impact crater on the moon but one of the largest in the solar system. It is also believed to be the moon's oldest and deepest (over 8 miles deep).
