lunarX2

The Lunar X is a feature which has the appearance of an X or "cross" caused by the intersection of the highest arcs of the rims of four craters. A note box outlines the X.

 

This is the full-resolution image.

 

This image was made by a DMK 21F04 firewire camera and a SV152 apochromat, with a Televue 4X PowerMate to increase image scale.
