Description

While observing the Moon on New Year's Eve just before 6pm EST, I was looking for the area of the Werner X. I noticed that I was possibly a day early but, I noticed this little mini-X very close to the crater Werner. Looks like a Werner X mini-me ! :) Is this something new? Has anyone ever seen this before?

Description

I didn't expect the 2 half moons can fit to each other quite well, I thought that the libration of the moon would destroy then circle. It is quite funny to put them together and shows the 3D effect of the moon.
