Moon Arago and volcanoes

About this image

To the north of Arago lie two known lunar domes Arago α (termed A2) and Arago β (termed A3). These two large domes A2 and A3 were likely formed during several stages of effusion, representing non-monogetic domes. The other smaller domes in Arago show lower flank slopes (between 0.5°-0.9°). The region of the examined domes and Plinius have been imaged on April 14 2024 using a mak Cassegrain 18 cm from Rome Italy.
