Name | Copernicus 4 |
Lat. | 10.3288 |
Long. | 339.6206 |
Desc. | Enormous semicircular pit. Floor along the arc of the semicircle (SE wall) contains ~10 6-13m angular boulders, remainder of floor is reasonably smooth (some ~40cm rocks visible, a small cluster of 2-5m boulders under the W rim. Stereo shows that floor slopes down towards center of W wall. E wall and southern end of W wall have no overhang, center of W wall has at least 3m overhang, although there is no evidence that it goes any deeper than that. No other depressions or PRFs in the immediate vicinity, although there's a similarly wide sinuous collapse a kilometer or so S. |
