Last night I was out with my 80mm refractor taking in the 2 day moon and the well positioned crater #Petavius

If you haven't seen it before it's visible during new moon for a couple days, a bit bigger than #Copernicus and with what looks like a spoke from center to edge. The spoke is from a fault.
