Mouth of the River Nene
Tycho Wing the fourth (1794-1852) was Surveyor to the Duke of Bedford, and made a considerable name for himself, earning the nickname “King of the Fens”. Sometimes in the company of John Rennie and Thomas Telford, Tycho surveyed the Nene River outfall and surrounding marshes. The Nene River mouth is known as Tycho Wing's Channel, and the area on the east side of the river is Wingland, or Wingfield.
Tycho is a prominent crater in the southern lunar highlands. The inner wall is slumped and terraced. This slopes down to a rough but nearly flat floor with small knobby domes.
This is an image of 53.4 miles wide (86km) lunar crater Tycho imaged in excellent atmospheric seeing on 21st April.
We simply don't get such steady seeing here very often compared to other favoured parts of the world so I was happy to get this.

Tycho Crater is a relatively young crater, with an estimated age of 108 million years, based on analysis of samples of the crater ray recovered during the Apollo 17 mission. Dimension: 86km X 86km, height 14,500feet
Clavius Crater is one of the largest crater formations on the Moon and the second largest crater on the visible near side. Clavius is also one of the older formations on the lunar surface, about four billion years ago. Despite its age the crater is relatively well-preserved. Dimension: 225km X 225km

"Tycho's Craterlets"
Last night a friend posted a shot of the gorgeous ray system of Tycho. It reminded me of this image that I had forgotten about in my image drive. This shot illustrates another aspect of ray systems, the myriad secondary impact craters created when ejected material falls back to the Moon.
Rays are created when a large meteor or an asteroid hits the Moon. The meteor or asteroid usually does so at tens of thousands of miles per hour. They scatter surface material at high speed when they hit, then they penetrate deep below the surface. Their kinetic energy is converted to heat, which vaporizes the meteor/asteroid and much of the moon-stuff around them. That all expands in a catastrophic blast upward and outward from the impact point. The material blown outward is everything from county-sized chunks, to glassy dust, to incandescent gas. The gas may escape the Moon altogether, or cool and condense on the Moon’s surface. The dust blows outward in streaks across the face of the moon, sometimes for thousands of miles, creating the rays my friend captured. The chunks usually fall back onto the moon, blasting craters of their own, or they may scour the surface, cutting radial valleys through mountains and leaving scars as they skip over the surface. That is a sequence of events you do not want to witness up close.
This picture is my best effort to show the effects of those big chunks that fall back onto the moon. Tycho crater is a young crater, so these effects are more clearly seen in its case. Tycho is the crater above center and a little right, the one with a brightly-lit western interior rim, a deeply shadowed eastern floor and a brightly illuminated central peak. Once you find it, look at the craters to the east (right) of Tycho. Look at their insides. Their floors are riddled with tiny craters. Some are arranged in lines stretching away from Tycho, like the rays. My photograph can resolve craterlets down to a little under two kilometers wide. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of them visible in this image. They are most densely packed near Tycho, but they can be spotted all the way to the right edge of the frame. For every one visible here there are many smaller ones below resolution. They have to await a bigger ‘scope.
I used an 8" aperture, 2032 mm focal length f/10 telescope as my lens (Celestron EdgeHD8). A monochrome planetary video camera (ZWO ASI 290MM) was used to collect 2086 video frames at 69 frames per second. This camera has a tiny sensor, with a crop factor of 6.7, so it can only see a tiny part of the Moon.
Of those 2086 video frames, the best 25% (522) were stacked into a single image. This procedure, called "Lucky Imaging" maximizes image sharpness and minimizes image noise and atmospheric blurring. AutoStakkert!3 software did the actual stacking.
The stacked image received wavelets processing in Registax 6 to help pull details from the remaining image noise.
Final processing was completed with Photoshop CC2020.

Imaged on the 20th March this is a closer view of Tycho Crater in the rugged southern lunar highlands.
It often gives the impression of being a polar crater when viewed from our perspective. However, it is well clear of the moon's libration zone and is only slightly foreshortened.
Some 53 miles in diameter the crater has a high albedo when the sun is overhead and the crater is surrounded by a prominent ray system. The crater is sharply defined and its inner wall is slumped and terraced sloping down to a rough but almost flat floor with small, knobby domes. The central peaks rise 1,600 meters (5200 feet) above the floor.
The area around Tycho is heavily cratered with craters of various sizes - many overlap older craters.

Thanks for looking!

Tycho Brahe, born Tyge Ottesen Brahe (December 14, 1546 – October 24, 1601), was a Danish nobleman famed for his accurate and comprehensive astronomical observations. Hailing from Scania, now part of modern-day Sweden, Brahe was well known in his lifetime as an astrologer and alchemist.
He also had a pet moose which he would bring to parties and get drunk. It died when it fell down some stairs.

🇬🇧 This shot isn't quite in focus, but I still find the moment exciting when the belt between the Earth's shadow and sunlight reaches the Tycho crater.
🇩🇪 Diese Aufnhame ist zwar nicht ganz richtig fokussiert, aber ich finde den Moment trotzdem spannend, wo die Grenze zwischen Erdschatten und Sonnenlicht den Mondkrater Tycho erreicht.
Cette fontaine surmontée d'un globe céleste se dresse en face de la maison à colombages Jakob Hansens Hus (1641, restaurée en 1931) située au Norra Storgatan 21, à Helsingborg en Suède,
La fontaine fut inaugurée en 1927 en présence du prince héritier. Elle rend hommage au grand astronome Tycho Brahe (1546 - 1601) qui est né en Scanie alors que cette région était danoise, puis a vécu et travaillé sur l’île de Ven située au milieu de l’Øresund, entre le Danemark et la Suède. La fontaine est constituée d’un globe du ciel conçu par l'architecte Gustaf Wilhelm Widmark, initiateur du projet. Les constellations sur le globe ont été réalisées par Astrid Aagesen selon un atlas astronomique datant des années 1600 et elles ont les traits des personnes qui furent impliquées dans le projet, une particularité qui causa un petit scandale à l’époque.
Le nom Helsingborg est dérivé du mot "hals" signifiant «cou» ou «détroit», se référant au col étroit de l'Øresund (Øre Sound), le bras de mer reliant la mer du Nord à la Baltique et dont la partie la moins large passe justement entre ce qui est maintenant Helsingør au Danemark et Helsingborg en Suède. Les habitants de la ville ont été mentionnés comme Helsinger (qui peut signifier «le peuple du détroit») pour la première fois à l'époque du recensement du roi Valdemar le Victorieux, en 1231.
En son centre, la ville brille comme une belle vitrine, révélant un front de mer rajeuni, des restaurants branchés et des rues pavées et animées. Les ruines de son château dominent la ville, lançant comme un défi au Danemark, à 4 km de l'autre côté du Détroit et rappelant son passé tumultueux. La ville fut au cœur des combats qui suivirent le traité de Roskilde (1658) et le retour de la Scanie dans l'escarcelle suédoise. En 1709, les Danois envahirent de nouveau la Scanie mais furent finalement vaincus en 1710 dans une bataille qui se déroula aux portes d'Helsingborg et qui marqua la fin de leur prétention sur la région.
