The Moon - 2022-12-10 04:34 UTC - Mare Fecunditatis
The Sun is just beginning to set on the easter shore of Mare Fecunditatis, the large flat plain at center image. Crater Langrenus is the "fresh" crater on the central eastern shore. Crater Petavius is the more worn and overlapped crater on the southeastern shore. The waning gibbous moon is just two days past full. Seeing was horribly poor at the time of capture.
