Description

Interesting place of the lunar surface, it is a mountain range about 250 km long.

The altitudes of the peaks are between 1800 m and 2400 m.

To the left of the image the rainy sea (Mare Imbrium), a dark plain, seems like a sea at the foot of these cliffs.

A valley, Valles Alpes, stretches 180 km long. It's traversed by a groove.
