Regarding South Polar Aitken

Post #1by danielj » 01.02.2005, 15:10

Look to this extract from a pdf Clementine document:
"The South-Polar Aitken was revealed by Clementine to be largest known(i.e until that time) impact crater in the solar system,with a diameter of about 2600 km and a maximum depth of almost 12 km..."
Is it clear now?
I don??t know if the SPA is missing in the lunar map of Celestia or only in moon-locs.ssc.
Look at this image:
