Unknown
This is a large area of the Moon as seen through a telescope on Earth. Many craters are shown , but I will not list them here. I mention here only a few features that are more highlighted than at other times, ie lunar soil color, and also brightness of crater because of the Sun. In a word, we can easily detect here the rays of craters which have a high albedo, the material ejected from impacts. The most obvious are Tycho and Copernicus, and also many other small craters that look like tiny stars scattered on the Moon.
The two large basins seen in center are Mare Serenitatis and Tranquillitatis.
