AS-15-M-1548 Although named on LTO-40B2, Catena Timocharis is hardly one of the Moon’s more noteworthy [/catena crater chains]. It can be seen in this rectified Apollo 15 Metric Camera view as the somewhat vague line of craters extending vertically down the middle of this view – to the east of the unnamed small bright crater and mostly to the south of [/Dorsum%20Grabau Dorsum Grabau] (the ridge across the upper middle of the frame). The chain fades into the “glacis” of the crater [/Timocharis Timocharis] (which is at the bottom, outside the frame). The 5-km circular crater in the lower right is [/Timocharis Timocharis] B. There are several other crater chains in the left part of this view, some perhaps more striking, but none of them were named.
