Taylor (Crater)Taylor is a lunar crater that is located to the south-southwest of Delambre crater. To the east is the smaller Alfraganus crater, and southeast of Taylor is the Zöllner crater. The worn outer rim of Taylor is elongated in the north-south direction, giving it an elliptical appearance. There is a break in the northern wall that forms a narrow valley, and the southern rim is relatively low compared to the peak rim heights along the eastern and western sides. The small satellite crater 'Taylor E' is attached to the exterior of the southeastern rim. There is a central ridge at the mid-point that is slightly elongated in the north-south direction. 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 Taylor crater. | idth="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Latitude | width="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Longitude | width="25%" style="background:#eeeeee;" |Diameter | | lign="center"|A | align="center"|4.2° S | align="center"|15.4° E | align="center"|38 km | | lign="center"|AB | align="center"|3.1° S | align="center"|14.6° E | align="center"|23 km | | lign="center"|B | align="center"|4.3° S | align="center"|14.3° E | align="center"|29 km | | lign="center"|C | align="center"|5.6° S | align="center"|14.8° E | align="center"|5 km | | lign="center"|D | align="center"|5.3° S | align="center"|15.7° E | align="center"|8 km | | lign="center"|E | align="center"|6.0° S | align="center"|17.1° E | align="center"|14 km |
