[edit] Summary

This image of a heavily battered region of the lunar far side was taken during the Apollo 17 mapping metric sequence, revolution #62. The large crater to the right of center is Pirquet. The selenographic coordinates of this image are 20.10° S, 139° E.

This picture was produced by reducing a Hi-res image to 25% of full size, then rotating 90° counter-clockwise so that north is toward the top edge.
