Description

Cantor is a crater of the Late Imbrium period (3.85 to 3.74 bn years), and lies some 800 kilometres away from Mare Humboltianum to the north-west and, roughly, the same distance from Mare Moscoviense to the east -- both Nectarian (3.92 to 3.85 bn years) in age The crater's appearance looks relatively young with its sharp-ish rims, but overall its shape is more oval, or hexagonal, than your average round-looking crater -- due, no doubt, to the result of extended terracing effects in the north-south (less in the east-west) direction. The floor of Cantor has been altered into a series of hills and rises due to these events; with the central regions predominantly showing a broken set of peaks dis-conjoined.- JohnMoore2
