BRIEF DESCRIPTION
The largest lunar mountain range, the Apennines, and the
prominent crater Archimedes dominate this part of the Moon close
to the prime meridian. It was at the foot of the Apennines,
close to Rima Hadley, that the Apollo 15 expedition
landed. Refer to your Antonin Rukl lunar atlas chart, page
71.
