In this video is surveilled all region around Sinus Iridum bay. Clarity is acceptable and therefore more interesting features are observed, much better than other times.
We start with Montes Recti on Mare Imbrium, the elongated hill, and continue with craters like Maupertuis, on east of the bay (46 km) and Bianchini (38 km). To the north, on Mare Frigoris, notice a dark crater, named Harpalus (39 km), and to its north is a large canker crater, named South (108 km), which makes its appearance at 0:12 second.
Montes Jura, are the surrounding mountains of Sinus Iridum, shaped with an arc shape.
