The Caucasus Mountains Home

Move your mouse over the picture to see the names of the various features.

This is the northern part of the Lunar Caucasus Mountains to the north of Mare Serenitatis. The most prominent crater is Eudoxus, 70 Km in diameter with steep, high walls with terraces. The floor is rugged with several central mountains.
The picture was taken with a ToUcam attached to my ETX125 with a X2 lens attached on 4th September 2004, when the Moon was 19.9 days old.
