Chappe (crater)

Chappe is a lunar impact crater that lies along the southwestern limb of the Moon.

It is nearly attached to the northern limb of the walled plain Hausen, and an equal distance from the crater Pilâtre.

This crater lies along the outer rampart of the much larger Hausen, and is surrounded by uneven, hummocky terrain.

The rim is roughly circular, with a small crater lying along the eastern edge.

This crater was originally designated Hausen A before being assigned its current name by the IAU in 1994.
