I post some photos of the Moon taken on the night of September 4, 2025.

The first photo shows the southwest quadrant of the Moon; at the top left there is Palus Epidimiarum, a flat area crossed by numerous rime slopes, to the right, on the terminator line, there is Schickard crater (227 km in diameter) and in the center, Schiller crater, with its characteristic, highly elongated shape, is located, perhaps due to the impact of two meteorites.

Gassendi is a crater 110 km in diameter with a a group of mountains high 1200 m inside; Rimae Mersenius, 230 km long and 2 km wide, and Rupes Liebig, 180 km long, are also visible.

Sinus Iridum is a large, partially disappeared crater measuring 400 km x 260 km.

Aristarchus, Copernicus, and Kepler are three craters surrounded by Oceanus Procellarum.
