Tycho (/ ˈ t aɪ k oʊ /) is a prominent lunar impact crater located in the southern lunar highlands, named after the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe (1546–1601). [2] It is estimated to be 108 million years old.

Jan 30, 2019 · Tycho Crater is one of the most prominent craters on the Moon. It appears as a bright spot in the southern highlands with rays of bright material that stretch across much of the nearside. Tycho’s prominence is not due to its size.

Jan 30, 2019 · NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft pointed the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera NACs to capture a dramatic sunrise view of Tycho crater. A very popular target with amateur astronomers, Tycho is located at 43.37°S, 348.68°E, and is about 51 miles (82 km) in diameter.

This mottled landscape showing the impact crater Tycho is among the most violent-looking places on our Moon. This image, taken by the Hubble Space Telescope, reveals lunar features as small as roughly 560 feet (170 meters) across.

The Moon crater Tycho is one of the most famous and notable craters on the Moon. It emerges as a clear spot in the southern highlands with rays of bright lunar material that stretch across much of the nearside.

For part of each lunation, Tycho Crater is perhaps the most conspicuous feature on the entire Moon. It is named after Tycho Brahe (1546-1601), the Danish astronomer whose …

Sep 21, 2021 · The National Science Foundation’s Green Bank Observatory (GBO) and National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO), and Raytheon Intelligence & Space (RI&S) have released a new high-resolution image of the Moon, the highest-ever taken from the ground using new radar technology on the Green Bank Telescope (GBT).

An 8–10 kilometer-wide asteroid dug Moon crater Tycho during Earth’s Cretaceous Period when dinosaurs yet clomped through fields and woodlands. The 86-kilometer-diameter Moon crater Tycho sits at the epicenter of a web of dazzling and abundant rays produced by massive rocks hurled outward from the impact.

Tycho, conspicuous impact crater resulting from an impact event and lying at the centre of the most extensive system of bright rays on the near side of the Moon. The rays, which are light-coloured streaks formed of material ejected from the impact, dominate the southern highlands and extend for more than 2,600 km (1,600 miles) across the Moon ...

The Tycho Crater is one of the most prominent and well-preserved impact craters on the lunar surface. Its striking appearance and unique features have made it a subject of intense scientific study, providing valuable insights into the formation and evolution of lunar craters.

Tycho Crater is the youngest large impact crater on the Moon's nearside. It is a prominent target for future exploration that is designed to determine (i) the chronology of impact events in recent Earth-Moon history and (ii) the geologic processes that produce complex impact craters.

The crater Tycho, 85 kilometers in diameter, is the youngest large impact crater on the Moon's nearside. Ejecta from this crater was spread across much of the nearside of the Moon and is visible in the form of bright rays at full Moon.

Aug 1, 2006 · Tycho is the most conspicuous crater visible near full Moon, shining brilliantly and radiating great long rays. But the rays from Tycho that partially encircle the full Moon are not distributed equally in all directions.

Tycho (/ˈtaɪkoʊ/) is a prominent lunar impact crater located in the southern lunar highlands, named after the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe (1546–1601). It is estimated to be 108 million years old.

Sep 23, 2021 · The National Science Foundation’s Green Bank Observatory (GBO) and National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO), and Raytheon Intelligence & Space (RI&S) have released a new high-resolution image of...

The Tycho quadrangle is centrally located in the southern half of the earthside hemisphere of the Moon. The area is characterized by a high density of craters, the largest of which – Stofler – is about 140 km in diameter.

Sep 26, 2017 · The moon’s famous Tycho crater, as seen at a low angle by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. Tycho is about 53 miles (85 kilometers) in diameter, and its central peak rises more than 6562 feet (2000 meters) above the crater floor.

This mottled landscape showing the impact crater Tycho is among the most violent-looking places on our Moon. This image, taken with Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys, reveals lunar features as small as roughly 560 feet (170 meters) across.

Jun 7, 2022 · Located in Lauterbourg, France, the plant will produce up to 100,000 tons of Battery Grade lithium chemicals per year – which is the equivalent capacity to power 2 million electric vehicles – to enable a secure and sustainable battery …

Dec 3, 2024 · In 2011, NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter captured a dramatic sunrise view of Tycho crater. A very popular target with amateur astronomers, Tycho is located at 43.37°S, 348.68°E, and is about 51 miles (82 km) in diameter. The summit of the central peak is 1.24 miles (2 km) above the crater floor.
