20170402 16-18 Mare Humboldtianum & crater Endymion
Mare Humboldtianum & crater Endymion imaged from London on 2nd April 2017.
As this 'Sea' is located along the north eastern limb of the Moon it is subject to libration which means that, on occasion, it can be hidden when viewed from the Earth. It was particularly well placed on this evening so I thought why not image it. The large crater Endymion can be seen at the bottom of the image.
