Also, if you have come here via the alternative entry point on my astrolloyd.tk address, I regret that "Reload" takes you back to my entry page; I suppose that's the price of my free URL and your having pop-ups blocked :-) .)

Please note that the image I have used for the pictures on the right are of the Moon at the right phase but were taken when the libration was some 12° to the west of where it was for the pictures on the left. So the features in the lower four images are much nearer the terminator than the locations shown by the arrows would imply.

I made a very large mosaic of the north polar area whilst the libration and the angle of the Sun were favourable. Sadly, I missed a section, so clicking on the thumbnail will take you to a page which presents the two section separately, but you can click on that picture to see how the sections align. Either way, close the window to return here.
