Description

Concentric rilles are the largest and most impressive on the moon many times. The best example is Rimae Hippalus forming an arc around the eastern side of Mare Humorum . Northeast and above Hippalus a strange thing happens - some rilles bow and tornan is concave to the east . The most notable of these features is named Rima Agatharchides , but is actually a part of Rille or Hippalus family?

Rima , Rimae ( Channel ) or for some selenogistas Rille ( narrow valley ) - Fissure or channel

lava that collapsed totally or partially.

The Rimae (plural rhyme ) Hippalus are straight or curved rilles , or failure caused by tension in the crust . Other sinuous rilles are believed to have formed by fast moving lava flow . Sinuous rilles often originate crumbling volcanic vents and ramps .

In the attached picture you can see perfectly Rimae Hippalus and Rima Agatharchides outstanding examples of the above .

A bonus that I liked very much in this photo, it was the ease of realizing that the Marth crater, actually a concentric crater, observe it carefully in the lower right corner.
