Lunar craters filmed through a telescope: Abenezra, Azophi and Geber.

Abenezra (42 km), Azophi (48 km), Geber (45 km), Abulfeda and Almanon (49 miles) are just a few craters seen in these images taken by the astronomical telescope, images that landmark south-central area of the Moon .

Many of these craters resemble each other in size, some are straddling each other, as Abenezra over Abenezra C (44 km).

We note here Almanon crater with its satellite craters Almanon A (10 km) and B (25 km) south of it, and C (16 km) stuck to east edge.

Crater that I like to watch here, is Geber, which is the most ordered of all, having the floor free of other small craters and lacks a central peak and its edge is almost perfectly circular.
