Ron,
That's the crater Pythagoras. There's numerous interesting things when looking at this crater, and not just to do with the photo you mention.
The curious multiple central peaks is nothing more than a digital processing & data collecting artifact. At first glance it looks like there are three parallel ridges, with the middle one have an odd spike halfway along it. Look a little more closely and you will see several more "echo" ridges that are a result of the very brightly illuminated ridge. Yes the conspiracy theorists would have a field day with this, but only if they are ignorant about contemporary digital imaging. The link below is to the picture you refer to:

This photo is also a fantastic example of lunar libration when seen beside the sketch I did of Pythagoras. The photo has the crater well clear of the lunar limb, yet my sketch has the crater right on the limb itself. And no, I didn't see the same striated central peak. Just the one. Makes for an interesting comparison the relative position of Pythagoras between the above photo and the sketch I made of the same crater.
This libration, or wobble that the Moon has allows us to see nearly 60% of its surface, not 50 if this wobble did not occur. The gif below is greatly accelerated, but the file is small enough for the IIS file manager to allow. Gives the idea anyway of the libration the Moon shows in a single cycle:
This is one thing I've forgotten to mention in the thread about observing the Moon and planets. I'll add a post to that thread shortly. In the meantime, if you would like to learn a bit more about the Moon and what it has to offer (not just craters an lava fields, but also volcanoes, singular and clusters, collapsed lava tubes, pyroclastic deposits, weathering (no atmosphere or water, but weathering still happens!)), and the fantastic photo opportunities that all this offers, you might like to look through that thread:
