Evening in the Ptolemaeus Chain and Rupes Recta Region
Ptolemaeus, Alphonsus and Arzachel, walled plains are simply large impact craters whose floors have been filled with lava, obliterating many traces of the original floor and central elevation. In the bottom part of this composite image (made up of two individual pictures) is Ptolemaeus, an ancient crater with no central peak but with multiple smaller craters across its floor surface.
