C. Herschel is a small lunar crater that lies on the western part of Mare Imbrium. It is a circular bowl-shaped formation that has not undergone significant erosion. The interior floor has the same low albedo as the surrounding lunar mare. To the south-southwest is the similar crater Heis. C. Herschel lies on a wrinkle ridge of the lunar mare named the Dorsum Heim. It is named after Caroline Herschel.
