Abstract
The families formed by one or more cratering events are found to be more numerous than previously believed because the fragments are smaller. We analyze some examples of cratering families (Massalia, Vesta, Eunomia) which show internal structures, interpreted as multiple collisions. We also discuss why Ceres has no family.
