Neste mosaico de dois painéis, você pode passear com os olhos sobre a superfície lunar, de uma proeminente e quase perpendicularmente iluminada cratera Tycho, com seu gigantesco complexo de raios, até a rugosa região polar austral lunar sob a zona de terminador, esta imagem abarca quase toda a área da região mais montanhosa da Lua, que é precisamente localizada naquele quadrante sul-sudeste.
