TSS Photo of the Day

Lunar Northern Hemisphere

#1

Post by astroavani »


There are many images of the Lunar South Pole, I myself have few photos of the North Pole. Perhaps this is due to the fact that the south is extremely cratered and this makes the photos very impactful.
However, we cannot deny that the North also has some incredible formations such as Plato, Vallis Alpes, Montes Caucasus and why not also mention MARE HUMBOLDTIANUM which in this photo, due to a good libration in latitude, perfectly shows its mountains in the background.
This is a photo to look at in original size, this is the only way it shows all the details that deserve to be seen.

Are you sure that you weren’t in lunar orbit when you took this photo?

extremely cratered and this makes the photos very impactful.
I didn't know you were so good at puns, Astrovani! ;)

Great photo as always. Thank you.
