Moltke (Crater)

Moltke is a lunar impact crater located near the southern edge of the Mare Tranquillitatis. This is a small, bowl-shaped crater surrounded by a bright halo of higher-albedo material. Just to the south lies the rille system named Rimae Hypatia. These follow a course running roughly east-southeast to west-northwest, and have a length of approximately 180 kilometers. About 50 kilometers to the northeast of this crater is the landing site of Apollo 11.

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 Moltke crater.
