Montes Apenninus Registax Observational astronomy Telescope images.

Date: February 15, 2011, Registax 54 frames to 85% Lowest quality.

In the images of this article, Montes Apenninus are photographed on different days, and that is why the shadows fall different on mountains. Because of that, some features are visible in some pictures, but in others, not.

In pictures processed in Registax above, the Sun is at a lower angle, and the shadow of mountains stretch more than their shadow in pictures below, where the Sun is at an angle higher, and less features are visible . For example, in the pictures above, along with Apenninus massive mountains at north, goes a broken mountain chain, that in the pictures below is almost nonexistent.

Date: April 13, 2011, 127 frames Registax Lowest 90% quality.

Archimedes's diameter (83 km) is larger than any crater on the Mare Imbrium. Archimedes don't have a ray system associated with new craters. A triangular mountain extends 30 km south-east side.
Crater interior has not a central peak, and is flooded with lava. It is devoid of significant features of elevations, although there are several small craters near the rim. Shows some covered light material on the floor, most likely made by ​​the impact that created the crater Autolycus (55 km).

Montes Apenninus surrounds the south-east of Mare Imbrium.This mountain chain ends on the bottom with Eratosthenes crater.
Some of the names of peaks of these mountains are:

-Mons Wolff
-Mons Ampère
-Mons Huygens
-Mons Bradley
