Moon - 2021-06-23 0502 UTC - Craters Klaproth and Casatus

Just left of center are two large and similarly sized craters, Klaproth and Casatus. Klaproth in the foreground is overlapped by the more recent Casatus. They are about 120km in diameter and roughly 3km deep. They are located in the ancient and rugged southern lunar highlands.
