Aristarchus on Earth's Moon

Moon Waxing Gibbous
29 July 2023, 8:58 PM EDT
87% illuminated
Vergennes, Vermont

The next full Moon is 1 August at 2:31 PM EDT, the Sturgeon Moon.

Note on the center edge left a tiny white dot, on zoom appears to be a crater. I believe that is Aristarchus, a 40 KM (25 mile) diameter crater.
