Plaskett is a prominent lunar impact crater that is located on the northern hemisphere on the far side of the Moon.

It lies only a few hundred kilometers south of the lunar north pole, and the sunlight it receives is at a low angle.

The large walled plain Rozhdestvenskiy is attached to the northeast rim of Plaskett, between the crater and the pole.

The outer rim of Plaskett has a somewhat polygonal shape formed from outward bulges in the perimeter.

[1] By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Plaskett.
