Hind is a lunar impact crater that lies to the southeast of the walled plain Hipparchus, and due east of the crater Halley.
It was named after British astronomer John Russell Hind.
The floor of Hind is relatively uneven, however, compared to the interior of Halley.
Hind and the craters Hipparchus C and Hipparchus L form a line with diminishing diameters that point to the northeast.
By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Hind.
