Schubert (Crater)Schubert is a lunar impact crater that lies near the eastern limb of the Moon's near side. The crater is located to the northwest of the Mare Smythii, and southwest of the prominent Neper crater. Nearly attached to the southern rim is the Back crater. This is a nearly circular crater formation that has not suffered significant erosion from subsequent impacts, and retains a well-defined rim. The inner walls lack a terrace system, and merely slope down to the floor. The interior surface is generally flat, with only a low ridge extending from the mid-point toward the southern rim. Satellite craters By convention these features are identified on Lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater mid-point that is closest to Schubert crater. | idth="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Latitude | width="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Longitude | width="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Diameter | | lign="center"|A | align="center"|2.1° N | align="center"|79.3° E | align="center"|2 km | | lign="center"|C | align="center"|1.8° N | align="center"|84.6° E | align="center"|31 km | | lign="center"|E | align="center"|4.0° N | align="center"|78.6° E | align="center"|27 km | | lign="center"|F | align="center"|3.2° N | align="center"|77.9° E | align="center"|35 km | | lign="center"|G | align="center"|4.1° N | align="center"|75.2° E | align="center"|56 km | | lign="center"|H | align="center"|1.4° N | align="center"|76.1° E | align="center"|31 km | | lign="center"|J | align="center"|0.1° S | align="center"|78.9° E | align="center"|20 km | | lign="center"|K | align="center"|2.3° N | align="center"|75.9° E | align="center"|29 km | | lign="center"|N | align="center"|1.8° N | align="center"|72.7° E | align="center"|75 km | | lign="center"|X | align="center"|0.3° N | align="center"|76.8° E | align="center"|51 km | The following craters have been renamed by the IAU.
