Description

The moon crater Crueger, located on the lunar surface, is known for its distinctive dark spots that surround its rim. These dark spots appear to be irregular in shape and size, casting shadows that create a stark contrast against the moon's pale surface. The dark spots are thought to be the result of either impact ejecta from nearby craters or volcanic activity that occurred in the past, which has left behind dark basaltic rocks.

Lunar coordinates: 16.7 S; 66.8 W
