Do you have a link you can refer me to that shows Sinus Meridium on
a lunar map? I've tried searching and can't find it. If that fails,
perhaps lunar co-ordinates.

Is the spelling correct? You wouldn't be referring to Sinus Iridium
or to Sinus Medii?

I want to get a look at the type of terrain (selain? luain? :) that
you're referring to.
