MOONNewClementine spacecraft mosaic of the Schrodinger impact
basin near the south pole of the Moon. The basin is 312 km in diameter and centered at 67 S, 132 E. Note the smooth floor and the large inner ring. Scientists favor this crater as an area for future study due to its diversity.
Relief map of Linné crater (2.2 km diameter) created from an Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) stereo topographic model. Linné is a very young and beautifully preserved impact crater. LROC stereo images provide scientists with the third dimension—information critical for unraveling the physics involved in impact events.
