Tycho

Here's another pair of pictures of one of the Moon's more prominent craters - this time Tycho. My previous attempt at this target is here and is a little blurry. These are better but still a bit off.

Clavius and Maginus are the two larger craters towards the bottom right. As this close-up shows, Tycho isn't the most spectacular of craters.

However it does give a good feel for the depth of the crater, particularly when compared to the length of shadow in Sasserides to the north
