Desc. | Triangular pit at northern end of a 100m chain of collapses at the edge of a hill. Floor is sloped from N to S, and shadow measures are to N end of floor. Tycho 15b is the center pit, and the southernmost collapse is more an alcove in the hillside level with the surrounding terrain (with an ~8m high N wall). The ground appears slightly sagged between the pits in the chain. There are several other linear depressions running in the same direction in the area. |
