Orontius & Co
This is what crater Orontius and its surroundings looked like last night (09/09/16).
Orontius is a 122km diameter crater in the southern highlands of the Moon's near side. As seen, this part of the moon is really cratered. The Eastern part of Orontius is overlain by Huggins crater, which is also overlain by Nasidderin crater. This last one limits Miller crater.
Telescope: D=150mm, F=1200mm
Eyepiece: 7mm
