Summary

Description
English: Oblique view of Jansen R crater, near Jansen crater, facing south, on the moon. Taken by Apollo 17 panoramic camera. This is nearly the same as Figure 244 of Apollo Over the Moon: A View from Orbit (NASA SP-362), which has the following caption:
This oblique photograph shows the buried crater Jansen R in northern Mare Tranquillitatis. This crater is about 25 km across, and empirical relationships between crater diameter and crater depth indicate that the mare basalt cover may be several kilometers thick. The rille in the right foreground (upper left in this version) may have been formed by the collapse of a lava tube. -D.H.S.
