A casual observer might mistake this 2090-meter-square swatch of the Moon for the Apollo 11 landing site on the Sea of Tranquillity. In fact, it is located in Oceanus Procellarum about 1980 kilometers west of Tranquility Base.

Description
English: A casual observer might mistake this 2090-meter-square swatch of the Moon for the Apollo 11 landing site on the Sea of Tranquillity. In fact, it is located in Oceanus Procellarum about 1980 kilometers west of Tranquility Base. Known as Site 5, this was the second backup landing site for Apollo 11. For a time it was also the backup landing site for Apollo 12. The largest young crater (lower right corner) is about 100 meters wide. North is toward the top.
