Chebyshev is a large lunar crater that lies in the southern hemisphere on the far side of the Moon. The somewhat smaller crater Langmuir is intruding into the east-southeastern rim of Chebyshev forming a chain of large craters with Brouwer on Langmuir’s eastern rim.The outer rim of this walled plain is eroded and somewhat irregular although much of the perimeter can still be discerned. The outer rampart of Langmuir spills into the interior forming a rough patch in the southeastern floor.
