ENDYMION

At the northeastern edge of the Moon there are two very prominent dark spots: the floor of the flooded crater Endymion and the Mare Humboldtianum. Under oblique illumination a mountain range stands out, forming a nearly continuous wall around Mare Humboldtianum: this wall is partly intersected by a wall of the crater Belkovich, which lies in the libration zone.
