I wonder whether ballistic/forensic experts are among moon photographers and what goes through their heads when look at the craters. The rim and outer landscape of the one in the linked photo looks like a volcanic explosion site from the innards of the moon, not an impact crater of an object crashing onto the surface?
Hi Annette

Here is a screen capture of the region from the "Virtual Moon Atlas", an amazing free application that has Lunar orbiter and other Spacecraft images.

Cheers
