Summary

Description This is an Apollo 15 photograph of the lunar surface from orbit. The frame shows Zhiritskiy crater (lower left) overlapping the western rim of the larger, eroded Zhiritskiy F satellite crater. Note the roughly linear sequence of impact features running from the northwest to the southeast across the floor of Zhiritskiy F. The crater at top-center is Xenophon. This image was taken during the Apollo 15 mapping metric sequence, revolution 50. The picture was produced by rotating the image 90° counter-clockwise so that north is toward the top edge, reducing it in size by 33%, then cropping the image to just show the vicinity of Zhiritsky.
