    Astronomy Adventure - Moon Craters

    Crater Schickard is the large crater near the median and Crater Phocylides is to its left. In between is the Crater Wargentin. The photo gives a great impression of how high the peaks on crater walls can be when you see just how far the shadow of the merged wall of Phocylides and Wargentin falls into the crater floor of Phocylides.
