Scheiner M (Moon)

Satellite Feature of Scheiner

Named after Christoph Scheiner - German astronomer (1573-1650).

Scheiner is a lunar impact crater that lies to the west of the enormous walled plain Clavius. To the southeast near the rim of Clavius is the crater Blancanus. The rim is worn, eroded, and marked with multiple impacts. It is most heavily worn in the northern part, where a cluster of craterlets covers the entrance to a low valley leading to the north.
