Left: LROC image WAC No. M118838769ME. Note, in this high-resolution WAC image (click image), the unusual series of linear features that almost cuts the crater in half. Are these in any way related to the dynamic events of the crater's impact event onto crater Ley, which lies to its north-east? - JohnMoore2 Calibrated by LROC_WAC_Previewer.
