Avicenna (Crater)Avicenna is a lunar crater that lies on the far side of the Moon, just beyond the western limb on the northern rim of the Lorentz basin.. It lies to the north-northwest of the larger Nernst crater, and to the southeast of the Bragg crater. The northern half of the Avicenna crater has been obliterated by subsequent, overlapping impacts. The southern and southeastern rim is worn and eroded, but the outline can still be discerned. There is a small crater lying across the southern rim, although this formation is equally worn. Several tiny craterlets lie across the southern extent of the Avicenna crater floor. 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 Avicenna crater. | idth="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Latitude | width="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Longitude | width="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Diameter | | lign="center"|E | align="center"|40.0° N | align="center"|91.1° W | align="center"|25 km | | lign="center"|G | align="center"|39.0° N | align="center"|92.0° W | align="center"|26 km | | lign="center"|R | align="center"|38.9° N | align="center"|100.1° W | align="center"|21 km |
