The Moon - 2022-08-19 08:19 UTC - Crater Plato

Crater Plato dominates the upper right quadrant of this image. Its "flooded" floor appears to be of similar material to that of Mare Imbrimum, which lies to the crater's south. Valles Alpes, a rift valley can be seen horizontally biscecting the more rugged terrain to the southeast. (A. Ruki 3, 4)
