Tags: Crater.
Hess is a lunar crater that lies in the southern hemisphere on the far side of the Moon. The crater rim has been worn by subsequent impacts leaving a low eroded outer wall. The flat interior has been resurfaced by lava flows and is free of significant impacts. This floor has a slightly darker albedo than the surrounding terrain.The crater Boyle is nearly attached to the northeastern rim of Hess and Abbe lies to the south.
