South pole of the moon

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Figure on page 14 of The Moon As Viewed by Lunar Orbiter, NASA Special Publication 200 (SP-200), 1970. Approximately reproduced from reprocessed image from Lunar Orbiter Image Recovery Project (LOIRP). Caption in the publication reads:
A closer look at the south polar area. The pole (D10, marked with an S) is in shadow. The crater Scott (J2), located about 2° S, 45° E, is 108 kilometers in diameter. The crater Amundsen (J9) is southeast of Scott. The two white triangular marks at D12 and G12 are processing blemishes.
The actual south pole is now known to be below and to the left of where the "S" is shown in this figure. It is on the rim of Shackleton crater.
