Pelvis Polus Australis–Aitken

Forma pelvis Polus Australis–Aitken in imagine ulterioris faciei Lunae delineata

Pelvis Polus Australis–Aitken est depressio lata et profunda in superficie illius faciei lunaris quae a Tellure non videtur. Depressio ovoides a polo, extremitate australi, usque ad craterem minorem Aitken, extremitate boreali, extendit. Relictum esse censetur crateris illisionis lunae et omnis systematis solaris maximi, aevo praenectario annos plures quam 3 900 000 000 a.p. facti. Vestigia gravia meteoritae vel asteroidis, cuius lapsu crater factus est, sub pelvi etiam hodie latent.

Natura huius pelvis a D. E. Wilhelms et collegas iam intellecta est. Forma et profunditas praecipue in operibus Pauli Spudis patefactae sunt explorationis gratia speculatri spatialis Clementine Speculatrum Sinense Chang'e 4 die 3 Ianuarii 2019 ad craterem Von Kármán in hac regione ad specimina mineralium adprehenda advenit.
