When looking at the image, the crater with what appears to be an almost perfectly smooth surface immediately catches the eye. This is the ancient impact crater Plato, located on the northeastern border of the Mare Imbrium. It has a diameter of 100 km and a depth of approximately 1500-2000 meters. Its smooth floor is explained by the fact that after the impact, the crater was flooded with basaltic lava.
To the west of Plato crater lies the small Teneriffe Mountains, with a length of 112 km and a maximum height of 2400 meters. Southeast of Plato is the Alpine mountain range, stretching 335 km with heights up to 3400 meters. Within it, besides the mountain peaks, a straight strip known as the Alpine Valley is clearly visible. Its length is 160 km, and its width reaches 10 km.
Start time of capture - 20:33 Original video length - 2 min 31 sec Resolution - 1920x1080 Frames per second - 50 Exposure - 20ms Gain - 250 Bin 1 Format - RAW16 30% of all frames were stacked (total frames 7530)
Next time, try to be more careful in selecting your frames, and it would be good to increase the shooting frequency as well. I hope this will help improve the resolution, as it currently isn't fully realized for this aperture: even a single crater on the floor of Plato isn't distinguishable.
