is a large
Lunar Crater that is located in the northern hemisphere on the
Far Side of the
Moon . The
Wegener Crater is attached to the northeast rim. Attached to the southeast rim is the
Frost Crater .
The outer rim of Landau is heavily eroded and modified by subsequent impacts. The most notable of these is
Wood Crater , which overlays the northwest rim. Much of the floor is hilly and irregular, with only the northeast quadrant being somewhat level. There are multiple small craters and craterlets in the floor. The most intact section of the rim is in the southwest, although this is now little more than a low ridge line.
By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater mid-point that is closest to Landau crater.
