View of the Moons north pole
This view of the Moons north pole is a mosaic assembled from 18 images taken by Galileos imaging system through a green filter as the spacecraft flew by on December 7, 1992. The left part of the Moon is visible from Earth; this region includes the dark, lava-filled Mare Imbrium (upper left); Mare Serenitatis (middle left); Mare Tranquillitatis (lower left), and Mare Crisium, the dark circular feature toward the bottom of the mosaic. Also visible in this view are the dark lava plains of the Marginis and Smythii Basins at the lower right. The Humboldtianum Basin, a 650-kilometer (400-mile) impact structure partly filled with dark volcanic deposits, is seen at the center of the image. The Moons north pole is located just inside the shadow zone, about a third of the way from the top left of the illuminated region

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing view of the Moon's north pole, offering a unique perspective from space. Composed of 18 meticulously captured images taken by Galileo's imaging system on December 7,1992, this mosaic reveals the lunar landscape in stunning detail. The left portion of the Moon, visible from Earth, unveils several prominent features such as Mare Imbrium with its dark lava-filled expanse dominating the upper left corner. Moving towards the middle left, we encounter Mare Serenitatis and further down is Mare Tranquillitatis. Notably present at the bottom is Mare Crisium, characterized by its distinctive circular shape. As our gaze shifts to the lower right region of this awe-inspiring image, we are greeted by Marginis and Smythii Basins - vast plains covered in dark volcanic deposits. However, it is undoubtedly the central part that steals our attention; here lies Humboldtianum Basin—a colossal impact structure spanning an impressive 650 kilometers (400 miles). Partially filled with enigmatic dark volcanic remnants, it stands as a testament to ancient cosmic collisions. The Moon's north pole tantalizes us from just inside the shadow zone near the top-left edge of illumination—an intriguing contrast between light and darkness that adds depth to this extraordinary composition. This remarkable photograph not only captures our imagination but also invites us to contemplate humanity's place within our vast universe.
