Maurice, Excellent image, do you think it's possible to see the Northern mountain ridge of the South Pole - Aikten basin (impact crater) on your image? Regards, Tor, P.S. I use your atlas every day, really useful and great publication.

Hi Tor, Thanks for you comments and glad you find the atlas useful! As to your question, I have not looked carefully for it, but I think when the libration is really good, the SPA mountains can be seen at times.
