Ball (crater)

Ball is a lunar impact crater that is located in the rugged southern highlands of the Moon. The formation is circular and symmetrical, and has receive little significant wear. The interior is rough-surfaced, curving downward toward the relatively wide central peak at the mid-point.

The crater is located to the west of Lexell crater and southeast of Gauricus crater. To the south is the Sasserides crater remnant, and further to the south-southwest is the prominent Tycho crater.

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 Ball crater.
