Apollo 17 landed on the flat floor of a deep, narrow valley embayed in the mountainous highlands that comprise the southeastern rim of Mare Serenitatis. Serenitatis is one of the youngest multiringed basins on the lunar nearside and is underlain by a mascon. The valley of Taurus-Littrow, which is radial to the basin, is generally interpreted as a graben formed as a result of structural adjustments of the lunar crust in response to the Serenitatis event.
