Lunar Surface At Telescope
(EDITOR'S NOTE: Image was captured through a telescope using ''lucky imaging''. This astrophotography technique captures short-exposure frames or videos, extracting and combining the best frames with specialized software for a sharper, detailed final image during stable atmospheric conditions.) Copernicus crater on the moon is seen through a telescope from L'Aquila, Italy, on January 21st, 2024. Copernicus crater, named after astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus, is a prominent lunar impact crater, featuring a diameter of about 93 kilometers and distinctive terraced walls surrounding a central peak. Formed approximately 800 million years ago, its well-defined features make it a notable target for lunar observers using binoculars or telescopes. (Photo by Lorenzo Di Cola/NurPhoto)
