Anderson (Crater)Anderson is a lunar impact crater that is located on the far side of the Moon. It is located to the northwest of Sharonov crater, and the satellite crater 'Sharanov X' is attached to the southeast rim of Anderson. To the northeast is the peculiar Buys-Ballot crater formation, and to the east-southeast lies the larger Spencer Jones crater. The outer rim of Anderson is heavily worn and eroded. Small craters overlay the southeast and southwest rims. The interior is relatively flat, with multiple tiny craters covering parts of the floor. The most prominent of these is 'Anderson L', located near the southeastern 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 Anderson crater. | idth="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Latitude | width="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Longitude | width="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Diameter | | lign="center"|E | align="center"|16.9° N | align="center"|173.4° E | align="center"|28 km | | lign="center"|F | align="center"|16.3° N | align="center"|173.6° E | align="center"|49 km | | lign="center"|L | align="center"|14.6° N | align="center"|170.9° E | align="center"|14 km |
