Description

It is an interesting landscape, presenting various types of formations that are revealed thanks to their proximity to the terminator.

The eye is immediately drawn to two craters side by side to the left of the screen.

At the end of the image, Atlas with a system of grooves crisscrossing his arena, and the remarkable Hercules with his arena stained with a curious dark and smooth task (69 km).

At the bottom right, immersed in the twilight of the terminator, the crater Bürg emerges from a dark area that corresponds to the a good name, the Lake of Death (Lacus Mortis).

At the top of the picture, more "peaceful" dominates the Lake of Dreams (Lacus Somniurum).

Technically, it is a selection of the best images of 3 videos of 2 minutes each, or 430/24000.
