Rosenberger (crater)

Other nearby craters of note include Biela to the east, Hagecius to the south-southeast, and Nearch to the south-southwest.

This crater has been heavily eroded by a history of impacts, so that the outer rim has become rounded and somewhat indistinct.

As a result, the crater possesses only a shallow rise along the rim edge, and it nearly forms a circular depression in the surface.

A number of smaller, worn impact craters lie along the rest of the rim and inner wall.

By convention, these features are shown on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Rosenberger.
