Zöllner (47 km), is a lunar impact crater located west of Sinus Asperitatis. North is Alfraganus (21 km) smaller crater and northwest is Taylor (41 km) oval in shape. Southeast of Zollner, is the small crater, Kant (32 km and 3.1 km depth).
Rupes Altai is 480 kilometers long, with somewhat a sinuous wall along much of its length. Is parallel to the southwestern border of Mare Nectaris, and actually forms a part of the external ring of Nectaris basin.
This section concerns a variety of topics about how to do more things that can help you practice astronomy.
Existing categories of “How to …” will have more and more topics when I will write what I’m doing, with or without my telescope.
The picture of the crater Copernicus, is turned upside down at 180 degrees and is a crop.
We analyze the last picture: if you believe that sunlight comes from the southwest, it is seen as a deep crater.If you think the sunlight comes from the northeast, it is no longer seen as a crater, but as a swelling .
For a long time, observers noted that the brightest stars in the constellation Orion forms a nearly symmetrical model together.

65 million years ago, in late Cretaceous, dinosaurs have witnessed a significant impact with an asteroid that devastated the Yucatan peninsula, from which resulted their disappearance.
Wichmann is a 11 km crater and Flamsteed has a diameter cataloged nearly double, to 21 km. The two craters are small compared to other craters that stretch hundreds of kilometers. The two impact craters are located on Oceanus Procellarum.
Sinus Medii, translation Central Gulf, is 350 km in diameter with an area of 52,000 square kilometers. It’s a irregular shaped mare, located near the center of the lunar disk, and links to Mare Vaporum, north of Sinus Medii.
