Whilst running through some shots taken earlier in the year it struck me there's a very faint ghost crater between Plato and Pico of a similar size to Plato (highlighted by black outline on my image below):

It's not named in Virtual Moon Atlas, but a little internet research throws up the name "Ancient Newton". The things you learn...! :hello2:

Anyway, 2 Questions:

1. Does anyone have a really good photo of it, perhaps under different illumination? - please post it up if you do.

2. Is there a fainter "ghost crater" that someone has a photo of? If so, I'd be interested to see if I can hunt it down for myself - please post it up.

Thanks
