Moons South Pole-Aitken basin
South Pole-Aitken basin. Mosaic image of the Constellation region of the South Pole-Aitkin (SPA) basin, the largest and oldest crater on the Moon. The SPA basin, on the far side of the Moon, measures approximately 2, 500 kilometres in diameter, which is nearly one quarter of the Moons circumference. The Constellation region is of interest because it is in a deep area of the basin where some original material from the impact may still be found. Melting caused by the impact would have changed the composition of materials, allowing the date of the impact to be determined. Imaged by the NASAs LROC (Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera) wide angle camera (WAC)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the awe-inspiring beauty of the Moons South Pole-Aitken basin, a monumental and ancient impact crater. With a diameter measuring approximately 2,500 kilometers, this colossal basin represents nearly one quarter of the Moon's entire circumference. The Constellation region within this basin holds immense scientific interest due to its deep location where remnants of the original impact material may still exist. Imaged by NASAs LROC wide angle camera (WAC), this mosaic image offers an extraordinary glimpse into the lunar surface. The monochrome composition highlights the intricate details and textures found within this cratered landscape, revealing a mesmerizing tapestry that has been shaped over billions of years. The South Pole-Aitken basin is not only significant for its size but also for its potential in unraveling crucial information about our solar system's history. By studying how melting caused by the impact altered materials within this region, scientists can determine when this momentous event occurred. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to human exploration and our insatiable curiosity about celestial bodies beyond Earth. It reminds us of both our smallness in comparison to the vastness of space and our boundless capacity for discovery. Courtesy of NASA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, it stands as a testament to their commitment to sharing knowledge and inspiring wonder through breathtaking imagery from outer space.
