Mare Australe may well be the most neglected area of the near side of the Moon. It is indeed hard to find your way around on this elusive area. I wandered around like a lost boy, checking and rechecking the proper identity of the few craters that have proper names, but it was well worth the effort. I am delighted that the Moon chose to show this seldom-seen area during the current lunation.
