CATHARINA

The Rupes Altai, in this section illuminated by light coming from the east, commences near the crater Tacitus and cross the region to the south and south-east. A bright, wide ray from the crater Tycho (map 64) runs across the craters Polybius A and B. The large crater Catharina forms a conspicuous trio with Cyrillus and Theophilus (map 46).
