Palitzsch (Crater)Palitzsch is a lunar crater that is located in the southeast part of the Moon, near the southeast rim of Petavius crater. Just to the southwest of Palitzsch is Hase crater, while to the east-southeast is Legendre crater. The northeast rim of Palitzsch forms the southern end of Vallis Palitzsch, a lunar valley that follows the eastern rim of Petavius crater for a distance of about 110 kilometers. The crater rim is relatively low and inconspicuous, while the floor forms a depression in the surface that follows the contours of the neighboring valley. 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 Palitzsch crater. | idth="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Latitude | width="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Longitude | width="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Diameter | | lign="center"|A | align="center"|26.9° S | align="center"|65.8° E | align="center"|31 km | | lign="center"|B | align="center"|26.4° S | align="center"|68.4° E | align="center"|39 km |
