Lunar crater Plato – April 8, 2014
Object Type Crater
Sunrise on the floor of Plato was captured in this video image made with a 6-inch Maksutov-Newtonian reflector on March 25, 1999. Note the spirelike shadows cast by the peaks on the crater's eastern wall. In a matter of several hours, these shadows shrink to a fraction of the length seen here.Courtesy Dennis di Cicco. - See more at: http://www.skyandtelescope.com/observing/the-mysteries-of-plato/#sthash.iZu1vz7g.dpuf Plato area highlighted.Courtesy Dennis di Cicco.
