Julius Caesar (Crater)Julius Caesar is a lava-flooded lunar crater with a low, irregular, and heavily-worn wall. It is located to the west of Mare Tranquillitatis, and directly southeast of Manilius crater on the Mare Vaporum. To the east is the round Sosigenes crater. The interior floor of Julius Caesar is relatively smooth, especially in the southwest half. The northern half of the interior has a lower albedo (darker) than the south. There are a number of crater remnants overlapping the rim along the south and northeast edges. A low ridge crosses the floor across the northeast sections of the crater. 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 Julius Caesar crater.
