Oops, Karens laptop was running out of disk space and it seems I used it form imaging, it had quite a few AVI's to process whcih I had forgotten about, anyway, someone tell me what this is?

I have given the origional image and then two representations of it Contour and Geographical.

I'd say it is definitely the Moon.

Hi Chris,

The main crater is crater Lansberg and the smaller surrounding craters are Lansberg A-G. The formation below these is Montes Riphaeus, and all this off the top of my head. ;)
