Description:

Copernicus was a Polish astronomer who fought geocentrism, placing the Sun at the center of the universe with Earth and the planets spinning around it. He removed the earth from the center of the universe. COPERNICUS is one of the moon's most spectacular craters, with a large extension (93 km), just 3.8 km deep, with a sharp edge and well positioned for a good view of your floor using small telescopes. It is also surrounded by a complex lightning system from the debris ejected by the enormous impact that created COPERNICUS, mainly due to its “young” age of approximately 800 million years. What catches the eye is its difference in composition. a reverse color technique was performed to show in more detail the composition difference, the image is with better observational value, without scientific value.
