A panorama of the 7-day-old first quarter Moon on March 13 2019, showing the full disk and detail along the terminator, the dividing line between the day and night sides of the Moon where the Sun is rising as seen from the surface of the Moon. Note the tiny points of light at the centres of some of the craters (particularly Alphonsus and Arzachel below centre) in the Southern Highlands from sunlight just catching the central peaks of those craters. At top in the north the slash of the Alpine Valley is obvious as well as the curve of the Apennine Mountains. The Sea of Serenity is above centre and the Sea of Tranquillity is right of centre. | |
