Emerging from the curved gash at the bottom of the image, the valley meanders along the foot of the Apennine mountain range and then across the Palus Putredinis plains at the top left. The cross marks a site that astronauts David Scott and James Irwin traveled to with the lunar rover. Apollo 15 astronaut David Scott and the lunar rover backdropped by a view of Hadley Rille, July 31, 1971.
