also seen in the wider image in the previous post is this trio of craters:
Theophilus, Cyrillus and Catharina craters 9/13/2021 02:54 UTC |
theophilus (left) has steep sharp terraced walls and a steep triple peaked central mountain.
cryillus (center) has more rounded walls, with the northern interrupted by theophilus. the central peak is also rounded and less prominent.
catharina (right) has low rounded edges with no terracing and multiple craters interrupting/obscuring the rim. nothing remains of the central peak.
Lastly, can you find the "ghost crater" in this wider view (click for full size)?
