Rhaeticus region
| |||||||||||||||
|
Rhaeticus is an ancient crater located in the highland region on the southeast edge of Sinus Medii. The outer wall of Rhaeticus is heavily disintegrated, with rifts and notches in the northeast. The wall is most intact along the eastern face, while in the northwest it is little more than a low rise above the surrounding landscape.
The interior of the crater has been resurfaced by lava, and only a few low peaks remain in the center. | |||||||||||||||
