Shaler is a lunar impact crater that lies on the southeast interior edge of the Montes Cordillera mountain ring that surrounds the immense Mare Orientale formation. It is located near the southwest limb of the Moon on the near side, and so is viewed nearly from on edge from the Earth. Just to the northwest of the crater is the slightly smaller crater Wright. The long, irregular Vallis
Schlesinger is a lunar impact crater on the far side of the Moon. The crater Esnault-Pelterie overlies the western part of the rim and the outer rampart of that crater has covered about half the interior floor, leaving a crescent-shaped feature. To the south-southwest of Schlesinger is the crater Von Zeipel and to the southeast lies Quetelet. In addition to the overlapping Esnault-Pelterie, the rim of Schlesinger is overlain
Sarton is a lunar impact crater that lies beyond the northwestern limb of the Moon, on the far side from the Earth. It is located to the southwest of the crater Coulomb, to the north of the walled plain Landau. Nearly attached to the northwestern rim is the smaller Weber. Although roughly circular, this is a somewhat oddly shaped crater that is slightly elongated to the
Rowland is a large lunar impact crater that is located in the northern part of the Moon, on the far side from the Earth. This is an old, worn formation that is overlain by a number of smaller craters. The most notable of these is Rowland Y, which is attached to the inner wall along the north-northwestern rim. Additional smaller craters are attached
Quetelet is a lunar impact crater, approximately 55 kilometers in diameter, that lies in the Moon’s northern hemisphere, on the far side from the Earth. It lies to the southeast of the crater Schlesinger, and to the east of Von Zeipel. To the east of Quetelet is Perrine. Rowland Clementine mosaic Coordinates 57.4°N 162.5°W Diameter 171 km Depth Unknown Colongitude 163° at sunrise Eponym Henry A. Rowland
Pirquet is an eroded lunar impact crater that lies to the northwest of the larger crater Levi-Civita on the far side of the Moon. About three crater diameters to the west is the prominent Tsiolkovskiy. To the north-northeast of Pirquet is Denning. The rim and interior of Pirquet are marked by a number of small craterlets. A small crater is protruding into the inner wall along
Priestley is a lunar impact crater that is located on the far side of the Moon from the Earth, in the low southern latitudes. It lies to the southeast of the flooded crater Kugler. This is a worn crater with a rim and inner wall that have been softened and have lost the sharp features of a young crater. The satellite crater Priestley X lies across
Pogson is a lunar impact crater on the Moon’s far side, behind the southeastern limb. It is located midway between the flooded crater Lebedev to the southwest and Bjerknes to the northeast. Farther west of Pogson is the uneven Mare Australe. This is a circular crater with a somewhat worn rim. A small craterlet lies across the southern rim, and pair is located long the northeastern
Pettit is a lunar impact crater that lies near the western limb of the Moon. It was named after American astronomer Edison Pettit.[1] In this location the crater is viewed nearly from the side by observers on Earth, and visibility can be significantly affected by libration effects. The crater lies among the rugged features of the Montes Rook, the inner ring of mountains that surround the Mare
Pannekoek is a lunar impact crater that is situated on the far side of the Moon, and cannot be seen directly from the Earth. The crater lies along the northern edge of the slightly larger Dellinger, and their common border forms an area of uneven terrain. Due north of Pannekoek is the huge walled plain Mendeleev. Glazenap crater is to the northwest. Pannekoek LRO image Coordinates 4.20°S 140.69°E
