PYTHEAS

The southern part of Mare Imbrium, bordered by the Carpathian Mountains (see also map 31). A complex pattern of bright rays in this area originate from the crater Copernicus (see map 31). Interesting objects for observation include a crater chain north of the crater Stadius M, at the bottom right of the map, and the ghost crater Lambert R, visible only when close to the terminator.
