Mendeleev is a large lunar impact crater that is located on the far side of the Moon as seen from the Earth. The southern rim of this walled plain just crosses the lunar equator. Intruding into the eastern rim of Mendeleev is the crater Schuster. Nearly on the opposite side the smaller Hartmann intrudes into west-southwestern rim.The nearly level interior of Mendeleev contains a number of smaller crater formations which have been given names.
