Summary

[edit]
Description
English: WAC mosaic showing most of Apollo Basin's northern, southern, and western inner ring as well as the central floor's dark mare basalt deposits. The white arrow shows the location of the high-resolution NAC image discussed above. The white "X", near the boundary of the smooth, dark floor deposits and the rougher, brighter inner ring highlands materials, is the center of one of the 50 Constellation Program regions of interest. The large (~51 km) crater at upper left is named Dryden; the largest (~49 km) crater partially visible just to the left of center at the bottom of the mosaic is called Chaffee. North is up and the width of mosaic is 130 km [NASA/GSFC/Arizona State University].
