| The Lunascan Project presents BULLIALDUS Directory - Section 53 Updated: Sept 7, 2011 BRIEF DESCRIPTION The western part of Mare Nubium with the prominent Bullialdus, which is one of the most attractive lunar craters. Its diameter is 63 km (37 miles). Other interesting objects include an elevated "causeway" across the valley Bullialdus W close to the crater Agatharchides O, a typical lunar dome Kies Pi, and the prominent rilles Rimae Hippalus and Rima Hesiodus. Refer to your copy of the Antonin Rukl lunar atlas, page 133. EARTH BASED TELESCOPIC IMAGES: Since many EBTI's are not kept long on the internet is best to use Google for these images.
