Description

Following my previous image centered on the Schiller crater, I created a panorama consisting of two panels to widen the vision of this beautiful lunar region and added in particular this huge closed plain Schickard, one of the largest formations of its kind, which draws attention to the southwest limb of the moon.

Unlike the Winjupos animation that shows the usual location of this area, the orientation of my image is purely aesthetic in order to highlight these craters immersed in the darkness of our satellite and thus add a more dramatic effect.
