St. George (crater)

St. George is a crater in the Hadley–Apennine region on Earth's Moon.

Astronauts David Scott and James Irwin drove their rover onto what was suspected to be its ejecta blanket in 1971 on the Apollo 15 mission during EVA 1.

They collected samples to the northeast of the crater, at Geology Station 2 of the mission.

St. George is on the west slope of Mons Hadley Delta and approximately 4 km southwest of the Apollo 15 landing point.

[1] St. George is of Upper (Late) Imbrian age.
