Is the image correct?

[edit]

As I compare the photo to plate 65 in the Astronomy Atlas of the Moon (Antonin Rukl, 1996,) it really appears to me like this photo shows: crater Nasireddin in the lower left, crater Miller in the upper right, Miller H below Miller which gives the orientation as it is pear-shaped, and just the northeast and southeast corners of Huggins on the left bottom of the frame, certainly cut off before the peak of Huggins and not showing Huggins A (in the crater.) Nasireddin overlays Huggins and Nasireddin and Miller share a wall. The caption, "Lunar Orbiter 4 image showing Huggins (lower left) and Miller (upper right)" is misleading because Huggins is not even close to completely visible and inadvertently omits Nasireddin. While I try to pull a better LRO image of Huggins, I am therefore editing the description to "Lunar Orbiter 4 image showing SE and NE corners of Huggins (lower left edge of frame,) overlapped by crater Nasireddin (lower left,) and Miller (upper, right of center.)" 98.215.82.138 (talk) 23:19, 12 June 2016 (UTC) Correction: Miller H above is actually Stofler H. Same crater, wrong description by me! 98.215.82.138 (talk) 01:30, 13 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have now uploaded a new image from data from LRO showing the full crater. LaughingVulcan 01:07, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
