Crater Malapert

The lunar lander Odysseus set down in this crater last night. Being at the very limb of the Moon's disc makes it difficult to see.
The base of the letter T stands on a dark curve, this is the rim of the crater. Somewhere there is the lander.
This image is 'upside down' with south at the top, it's a bit easier to see the crater this way. I used my 72mm telescope with a specialist planetary camera to take a short video which was then processed to give a single sharp image.
