Mons Agnes
What Mons Agnes is
Mons Agnes is a mons — a mountain — on The Moon, centred at 18.7° N, 5.3° E in the Montes Apenninus quadrangle.
Where the name comes from
Greek female name. The International Astronomical Union approved the name in 1979, under the theme it applies to every mons on The Moon. Of the 57 features of this class catalogued on The Moon, the naming categories run Germany (9), France (6), Italy (5), Great Britain (4).
What it would take to settle Mons Agnes
The Moon scores 29.1 as a world. That number is the same for every square metre of it — but sunlight, water, radiation and the ground under your feet are not. This is the same question asked at 18.7° N, 5.3° E.
What this spot has going for it is earth link — near side — Earth stands 71° above the horizon and never moves. What works against it is water — outside the ice-bearing latitudes.
Computed from Mons Agnes's catalogued latitude, longitude and feature class — 84% of the model's weight had a basis here, and one axis was dropped as not applicable to The Moon (radiation geometry). Gravity, pressure, delta-v and distance from the Sun are the same everywhere on The Moon and are already counted in the world's own index, not again here.
What this cannot see: elevation. Slope, local shadowing and the polar “peaks of eternal light” — ridge tops near the poles of a barely tilted world that catch sun almost continuously while a crater floor kilometres away never does — need a terrain model this does not have. Where a real mission targets a pole, that is usually why.
