Mare Imbrium, or the "Sea of Rains," is one of the largest lunar maria on the Moon. It covers an area of about 1,145 kilometers in diameter and is surrounded by mountain ranges formed by ancient volcanic activity. This dark, basaltic plain was created by lava flows that filled large impact basins. The Mare Imbrium is notable for its unique geological features, including several craters like Copernicus and Kepler. It is also a popular target for amateur astronomers due to its size and visibility. The region provides valuable insights into the Moon's history and the processes that shaped its surface.
