is a large
Lunar Crater that is located on the
Far Side of the
Moon , deep in the southern
Hemisphere . It is partly overlaid along the southeastern side by the larger and younger
Antoniadi Crater . To the west-northwest lies
Lyman Crater .
Nearly half the crater is overlaid by the rim, outer , and ''ejecta'' from Antoniadi crater. The remaining rim is worn and eroded, with a number of small craterlets along the edge and inner wall. The western interior floor is relatively level, but is marked by ''ejecta'' and secondary cratering from Antoniadi. If the crater ever possessed a central ridge, it may now be buried.
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 Minnaert crater.
