Hausen

The full moon in fact , most often not presented completely full . Right now you can see all the terminator slipping around the limb of the Moon so that shadows are always generated somewhere, providing beautiful views of our satellite . On this last full moon of May the shadows were generated by the mountains of the south pole of the ring forming part of the South Pole Aitken Basin . In the photo below obtained in a favorable libration was possible to capture the crater Hausen . This crater is difficult to see since it was situated very near the limbus and rarely get to see their mountainous central peak so clearly .

If you've seen a crater on the Moon , then presto, you 've seen them all. Because the energy involved in forming an impact crater to be something so intense , the craters of similar size and new looks are very similar . For example , let us consider two examples of two gigantic crater. One is Cornicus crater 93 km wide and famous for its prime location when observed from Earth well known to us all . The other is the crater Hausen with their 167 km wide and difficult to see as it is located on the southwest limb of the Moon beyond Bailly . Despite the difference in diameter , the craters are very similar , both have sheer walls with terraces that descend to the inner plane of the crater , which is filled by central mountains . The fresh impact craters with diameters ranging from 40 km to 200 km are very similar . In craters larger sizes there is a transition to peak ring craters and multi-ring basins .

Although this picture is not left with good quality was the first time I could record this crater and therefore decided to include it in my photo gallery .

Stack of 108 frames in AS ! 2 and processing using Photofiltre and Irfan .

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
