WATT

The southeastern limb of the Moon. The numerous dark patches of mare material on the limb form Mare Australe. As determined from photographs taken by the Lunar Orbiters, Mare Australe is circular with a diameter of about 900 km. From an evolutionary point of view it is evidently a very old lunar basin.
