Two LROC NAC views showing the newly discovered Apollo 16 S-IVB stage impact crater, each image is 400 meters wide, north is up.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Two LROC NAC views showing the newly discovered Apollo 16 S-IVB stage impact crater, each image is 400 meters wide, north is up. Both images were taken when the Sun was relatively high above the horizon (noon-ish) bringing out subtle differences in albedo (reflectivity or brightness). The high and low reflectance rays extending out far from the rim are distinctive of the S-IVB impact craters and allow confident identification (left: M183689432L, incidence angle 36°; right: M1195579502R, incidence angle 14°).
