GASSENDI
The Humorum basin and a magnificent crater Gassendi, which resembles a diamond ring, are among the most prominent features of the southwestern quadrant of the near side of the Moon. The system of concentric mare ridges in Mare Humorum and the neighboring rilles Rimae Hippalus are attractive objects for telescopic observation.
