The bright spots in Occator have now been named. As usual, the PDF map has been updated.
The central bright spot has been name Cerealia Facula while the eastern cluster of bright spots has been named Vinalia Faculae. Also, Ysolo Mons has been renamed Yamor Mons for some reason. -------------------- |
