Stebbins (crater)

Stebbins is a large lunar impact crater on the far side of the Moon.

To the north of Stebbins is the smaller Hippocrates, and to the west is Sommerfeld.

This is a worn and eroded crater with smaller impacts along the rim edge and the interior.

The interior floor is relatively flat, with a central ridge offset to the northeast of the midpoint.

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