 This two image composite at prime focus
            shows the huge Imbrium impact basin occupying nearly the entire
            frame. On the top is the more recent crater Copernicus, and at
            the bottom is Plato. Sunrise on the Jura Mountains can be seen
            on the lower right edge as a crescent shaped basin.
