Tags: Crater.
Gassendi is a large lunar crater feature located at the northern edge of Mare Humorum. The formation has been inundated by lava during the formation of the mare so only the rim and the multiple central peaks remain above the surface. The outer rim is worn and eroded although it retains a generally circular form. A smaller crater Gassendi A intrudes into the northern rim and joins a rough uplift at the northwest part of the floor.
