Eddington (crater)

120.13

Eddington is filled with lava remnant of a lunar impact crater. It is located in the western part of Oceanus Procellarum.

Its western edge covers the eastern edge of the crater and Struve in the east -south-east lies the small but famous Seleucus crater. To the south is the crater Krafft.

The southern and south-eastern boundary wall are almost completely gone, which is why you only see a few rocky outcrops and hills in the Mare, which run along the former crater. The crater is thus more like a bay of Oceanus Procellarum, which is open to the south towards the sea. The floor of the crater is nearly flat and there is besides the nearly submerged crater Eddington P in the southeastern sector no significant other craters within the main crater. Should the crater once have had a central collection, so this can not be determined any longer.
