Pallas and Murchison Craters of the Moon through telescope

North of Sinus Medii, Pallas (50 km) and Murchison (58 km), somewhat eroded craters formes a duo. These two craters are easy to remember because of the shape of the shoe. They were formed after the massive impact that created the Imbrium basin, and were eroded by the residue in the event.

Other craters around them are Bode, Chladni and Ukert.
