(1) 4 Plato Craterlets) (9-8-01)
(2) 10 Plato Craterlets (9-8-01)




Plato and the Alpine Valley imaged 9-8-01.
Imaged with AP 155, Nikon CP950, UO 12.5mm Ortho, 2.5X Powermate. Single image. 4 craterlets clearly revealed in Plato and a hint of the Alpine Valley Rille.
 




10 Craterlets revealed. Left to Right: My Plato, my Plato w/arrows, NASA Plato.
Imaged 9-8-01 with AP 155, Nikon CP950, UO 12.5mm Ortho, 2.5X Powermate. Stacked images using AstroStack.
My purpose here was solely to see how many craterlets this image would reveal. The 4 main craterlets are clearly resolved as craters, 3 more craterlets are also revealed as craters but you have to look carefully to see them (you can tell by their shadows falling on the right wall just like on the 4 main craterlets). Another 3 craterlets appear only as dots for a grand total of 10 (if you're generous :-).
