Latitudinally corrected 3-GHz TA shown at midnight local time. (a) These data show a clear localized antenna temperature (TA) enhancement of about 9 degrees Kelvin centered on the mapped Compton–Belkovich topographic feature. This feature is not explainable by topography, surface rock distribution or material properties and is seen at all frequencies and times of day. (b,c) The context globe shows Lunar Prospector-measured thorium scaled 0–35-ppm Th (b) and the perspective view shows the TA superimposed on the central surface feature resembling a volcanic system topography (c).
