South Ray (crater)

South Ray crater is a small crater in the Descartes Highlands of the moon photographed from the lunar surface by the astronauts of Apollo 16. The name of the crater was formally adopted by the IAU in 1973.〔
The Apollo 16 Lunar Module (LM) ''Orion'' landed between North Ray and South Ray craters on April 21, 1972. The astronauts John Young and Charles Duke explored the area between the craters over the course of three EVAs using a Lunar Roving Vehicle, or rover. They came closest to South Ray on EVA 2, at station 4, about 3.9 km south of the landing site. Duke photographed South Ray from there with a 500-mm lens.
South Ray crater is approximately 700 m in diameter and approximately 120 m deep,〔(Apollo 16 Landing Area ), 78D2S1(50), NASA Lunar Topophotomap. Published by The Defense Mapping Agency, November 1974. Available from Lunar and Planetary Institute.〕 with a bright system of rays of ejecta. The astronauts observed that the ejecta of South Ray was very bouldery, and reported that it would have been difficult or impossible to drive there on their rover.〔(Apollo 16 Preliminary Science Report ) (NASA SP-315), 1972〕
South Ray cuts into the Cayley Formation of Imbrian age.〔(Geologic Map of the Apollo 16 (Descartes) Landing Area ) by Apollo Field Geology Investigation Team (D. P. Elston, E. L. Boudette, J. P. Schafer), United States Geological Survey, April 1972〕 The crater itself is much younger (Copernican).
