Ingalls (crater)

37.35

Ingalls is an ancient impact crater on the side of the moon and therefore can not be observed directly from Earth. It is located north-northwest of the crater Mach and the same distance west of joules.

The formation of Ingalls was heavily damaged by later strikes took place, so that by it little more than an irregularly shaped depression in the lunar surface is left. The outer crater rim is rounded and pitted by small impact record. The crater floor has except for a few tiny craterlets on any special features. About the northern edge of Ingalls run faint traces of a system of rays emanating from some distance west- south-west to Jackson crater.
