Description

Crater Copernicus can be seen on the left side of the terminator in the upper third. The crater floor is still in shadow.

Above there are 5 mountain peaks, which the suns already illuminate.

This looks then like the arrangement of the 5 points on a cube. This is called lunar quincunx.
Literally translated: "the five eyes of the dice".

This visual effect is only visible for about 2 hours.
