029-The Moon from Clem-OrientaleBasin.jpg070 - The "Orientale" basin74 visiteMosaic of more than 2000 Clementine (750-nanometers) images, showing the Orientale Basin of the Moon at full resolution of about 250 mt per pixel. The Orientale Basin is about 930 Km in diameter and is only partly filled by dark, mare lava.
The relative paucity of mare basalt fill, coupled with the young age and topographic freshness of the basin, makes this feature the archetypal lunar multiring basin.

OrientaleBasin&SC~0.JPG027 - Earthshine and Solar Corona over the Orientale Basin76 visiteThis fantastic view of the Moon was acquired by the Attitude Determination Camera (Startracker) on board Clementine.
The Moon is illuminated only by Earthshine - that is, sunlight reflected from the Earth to the Moon.
The Sun is actually behind the Moon, though the outer portion of the Sun, the Solar Corona, is visible over the limb.
The ringed basin disappearing into the darkness is the Orientale Basin.
deep shadows cast by its steep walls give a dramatic emphasis to its classic multi-ring morphology.
