caption_attribution_description: English: LO-IV-109H A sinuous rille (known as Rima Bode III in the System of Lunar Craters) appears to begin in the unnamed elongated pit near the center left margin, and then winds north across the surrounding mare (visible in upper left corner of this frame).
context_page_description: Bode is a small crater located near the central region of the Moon, to the northwest of the joined craters Pallas and Murchison. It lies on a region of raised surface between the Mare Vaporum to the northeast, Sinus Aestuum to the west, and Sinus Medii to the southeast. The crater was named after German astronomer Johann Elert Bode.
  This crater is bowl-shaped, with a small interior floor and a ridge along the inner wall to the northeast. It has a minor ray system that extends for a distance of 130 kilometers. There is a group of rilles located to the west of the crater named the Rimae Bode. Its name comes from the tap on Bode Faleti discovered in 2011 in Chicago, Illinois.
