Cajori is a lunar crater that is located in the southern hemisphere on the far side of the Moon. It lies to the southwest of the Von Kármán walled plain, and to the east-southeast of Chrétien crater.

The outer rim of Cajori crater has been heavily damaged by impacts, leaving a disintegrating outer perimeter that is irregular and notched along its edges. Several small craters lie along the edge, with the most notable being 'Cajori K' attached to the southeast rim. The inner floor is less heavily impacted, and is marked only by some tiny craterlets.

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 Cajori crater.
