Hadley Rille-Apollo 15 landing site

An image taken under a low angle of illumination from the Sun. This is dominated by the trio of large craters, Archimedes, Aristillus and Autolycus.

However of particular interest, visible to the top left of the picture, is the sinuous rille, Rima Hadley. This was site of the Apollo 15 landing.
