The supermoon of 7th April 2020. The darker areas are lunar seas (maria), many created from lavas which flowed out in response to asteroid impacts. The three most obvious "seas" are (left to right in the upper part of the moon) Mare Serenitatis, Mare Tranquilitatis (whre Apollo 11 landed in 1969), and Mare Fecunditatis. The light areas are called the lunar highlands, made of the earliest crust on the moon. You can also see impact craters, with bright streaks or ray systems emanating from them, created by material thrown out by the force of the impacts. Obvious impact craters are Copernicus, seen on the left side of this image, and Tycho, on the bottom right.
