Large rille South-East North-West oriented to the
departure. Crosses the crater Hyginus.

an alignment of craterlets. Connected by a small
groove to Rima Ariadaeus SEE VIDEO @ PAGE TOP FOR ANNOTATED TOUR (Left) MONTES CAUCASUS 536.0x536.0Km / 315.0x61.0Mi Continuation of Apennins, mountains intersected with

They occur only at very low sun angles during lunar sunrise or sunset and are visible only for a short time, minutes to a few hours. The rays can range from thin almost parallel wedges to broad pie slice shapes,if you look closely you will see three in the crater Stoufer. Stoufer is
