The basin is located at 3° S, 158° W and is about 440 Km in diameter, the largest crater in the image, to the left and slightly above the center. Adjacent to Korolev, at about 5:00, is the crater Galois and at 6:30 is the smaller Doppler crater. The rim of the South Pole - Aitken Basin - is faintly visible running just below these craters. North is up (Lunar Orbiter 1, frame M-40)".
