Davisson (Crater)Davisson is a lunar impact crater that is located on the far side of the Moon fom the Earth. This crater lies across the eastern rim of the huge Leibnitz walled plain, and the rim and outer rampart intrudes into the interior floor of Leibnitz. To the east-northeast of Davisson in the Oppenheimer walled plain, a formation only somewhat smaller than Leibnitz. The rim of Davisson has been somewhat eroded from impacts, but it retains some detail from its original formation. Particularly along the western face, the interior wall displays some terraces. The rim is more worn along the northeastern face, and the rim is more irregular to the north and south. The interior floor is relatively level and feaureless, with a low central peak offset slightly to the southwest of the crater mid-point.
