Description

It is a view of Plato, famous walled plain with its very dark arena.

Inside the enclosure you can see 5 small craters with a diameter of 1.7 to 2.2 km.

Plato is located between the Sea of Cold (Mare Frigoris) here at the top and right of the image (small portion), and the Sea of Rains (Mare Imbrium) below its arena.

To the east of Plato Crater are visible a deep groove (Plato Rimae) and part of the lunar Alps (Montes Alpes).
