South pole of the Moon is really bombed . So bombed that I think was a little more difficult for scientists to put a name to each crater , than the center area of the Moon where large basins of lava prevails . I feel like the center area of the crater was just craterous as the south , but they were covered by lava .
Crater Moretus (114 km) , here is showing its floor more than other times when the view was more oblique , as seen from Earth . For example , other times I could not see craters beyond the south of Moretus , when the Moon was inclined with its north toward us.
Here , however, we can see the crater Short (71 km) , Newton (79 km) and Klaproth (119 km) , which were more difficult to recognize, being on the edge.
Moretus is a crater that can not be confused in this area. With a perfectly circular shape , and beautiful terraced interior, is too perfect for deformed craters superimposed over each other around it.
Central peak has a beautiful shape in the sunlight. Peaks in the center of craters, are found only in those with a diameter more than 26 km. These are generally caused by the effect created by the kinetic energy of the impacting object, energy converted to heat, melting the lunar material.
I would doubt that man will put its foot here very soon on this damaged and dangerous area to carry out missions .
