Theophilus, Cyrillus, Catharna Moon craters
One of my personal favorite areas of the Moon is the 3 craters named Theophilus, Cyrillus, and Catharna. These set of impact craters lay between Sinus Asperitatis to the north, and Mare Nectaris to the south. Theophilus is the dominate crater, overlapping its neighbor Cyrillus. This image was taken on 12-16-15 with my newly acquired Phillips SPC900nc and my trusty Nexstar 6SE.
