- Secchi A and Secchi B, a pair of bowl-shaped craterlets at 3°30' north/ 41°30' east, was captured on frames 2021 to 2024, made by Lunar Orbiter 2. Frame 2024 shows both craterlets (Secchi A near the centre), while nearby Taruntius F is seen on Frame 2021.
- Secchi K was captured on Apollo 10's AS10-29-4261. Note the double ray of the Messier twins in the frame's upper left section!
- The bowl-shaped crater Secchi X (which was called "Lost Crater" during the hey-days of the first orbital Apollo missions) and the nearby Rima Messier, were captured on Lunar Orbiter 5's Frame 047.
- Secchi X (the "Lost Crater") was also captured on Lunar Orbiter 1's Frame 1067.
