|---|---|
| Name | Kepler 4a |
| Lat. | 7.946 |
| Long. | 322.1363 |
| Desc. | A trapezoidal pit. Kepler 4b is ~200 m E, and there is a band of fractures/depressions WSW-ENE ~100m N of the pit. SW corner of the pit is a slope leading almost all the way to the floor. There is a short ridge cutting across the base of the slope, although it should be possible to go around it. Lighting in slewed images puts all potential overhangs in shadow. |
