Description

Sinus Iridum is the rim of a large impact on the rim of Mare Imbrium. The western rim of the crater is not visible as it is overflown by Mare Imbrium.

To take this image I had to get up very early in the morning, at slightly freezing temps to aquire the data. All in all well worth the effort 😀
