Description:
In my opinion the most beautiful region of the moon: Valle Schroteri region showing mainly the Aristarchus plate and its strange region. Plato de Aristarchus (55km wide) has large pyroclastic deposits and is a potential resource for useful elements such as hydrogen, oxygen, iron and titanium. Thus, due to its geological complexity and resource potential, the Aristarchus region is naturally of interest to the Constellation Program and future lunar missions. The other region of great interest (Cobra Head [CH]) consists of a deep well that is thought to be the source of ventilation for a tremendous lava flow that flowed through the plateau and formed the rille. This region has a high brightness. Do you know why? What is the origin of the shiny material? Some of the shine is a function of steep stone faces facing the sun. Most of the local material here is basaltic, giving a different color to the region, originating in the huge 140 km long snakehead vents of the Vallis Schröteri.
