Voskresenskiy (crater)

Voskresenskiy is a lunar crater that is located near the western limb of the Moon. Due to its position, this crater is viewed from the edge, limiting the amount of detail that can be viewed. The visibility of this formation is also affected by libration, so that at times this crater is hidden from sight, while at other times it can be more readily viewed.

The crater is located to the southeast of the Röntgen and the huge Lorentz walled plains. To the south-southwest lies the Bartels crater, and slightly further to the east is the western edge of the Oceanus Procellarum lunar mare.

The outer edge of this crater is only slightly worn, and the edge is still well-defined with only a few tiny craterlets lying along the southwest rim. A small crater is attached to the exterior edge of the rim to the southeast. The inner walls has a shelf or terrace along the northern and western sides. The dark interior floor has been resurfaced by basaltic-lava, and it has the same low albedo as the lunar mare to the east.

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 Voskresenskiy crater.
