Astronomy video captures of Bullialdus crater on the Moon.

I've never seen in this light Bullialdus (61 km) and its complex craters. They are seen here when the sun shines at a low angle. Bullialdus's floor is almost covered by shade here and its satellite craters Bullialdus A (26 km) and B (21 km). In continuation of these craters is Konig (23 km), forming a bow like with Bullialdus's craters.


North of Bullialdus are observed Lubiniezky crater (44 km) and south of Bullialdus B is Kies (44 km).

In the upper left are two craters side by side: Campanus (48 km) and Mercator (47 km).

Images are upside down and the cardinal points do not correspond to images unless you see the Moon right.

Distance: 393696 km
Phase: 26.6% (0% = New, 100% = Full)
