Leakey is a small, undistinguished lunar impact crater that is located in an area of rough terrain in the eastern part of the Moon.

In the surface between this pair and Leakey is a system of rilles designated the Rimae Gutenberg that follow a course to the southeast.

Leakey is a circular, bowl-shaped formation that is symmetrical and not significantly eroded.

The inner walls slope down to a ring of low albedo material having a diameter about half that of the crater.

The rim is not notably eroded and the crater has no other features of interest.
