Unknown
In these images of the lunar south pole, north is down and south is up. Central in these images is the crater Moretus (114 km), which appears as a plate. Looking from above it seems perfectly round, but it's southern edge is wider. With this form, seems a more of a copy of the Drygalski crater (149 km), but which can not be seen from Earth because is at the south of the Moon side but not visible to us.
