''Italics indicate farside features.''<br /> <br /> '''''The "Le Alda" mystery'''''<br /> '''Was Ken Mattingly's "LE ALDA" perhaps THE ALTAI?'''<br /> '''154:02:57 G.E.T.: CMP Ken Mattingly (Apollo 16):'''<br /> "Okay. Maybe we could have drawn a terminator that was a little more over towards the area where we've shown our target, but there may be quite a drop-off in elevation here. It would only take - quite a bit, to the Sun angle wouldn't have to be an awful lot, on a geologic scale I guess. But the actual terminator was running down just to the west of '''Le Alda''' [or Mädler?] so I ran a strip down that".<br /> '''-''' ''Apollo 16 Flight Journal'', David Woods and Tim Brandt.
