Wollaston (crater)

Wollaston is a relatively small lunar impact crater located in the Oceanus Procellarum.

There are several small rilles to the southwest of Wollaston, forming part of the Rimae Prinz.

[1] This is a circular, cup-shaped crater with a higher albedo than the surrounding mare.

It has a raised rim that is free from impact erosion, and is surrounded by a small radial skirt of ejecta.

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