Tags: Crater.

Nobel is a crater that lies on the far side of the Moon. It is located in the northern edge of the vast skirt of ejecta surrounding the Mare Orientale impact basin. Less than three crater diameters to the south of Nobel is the larger crater Elvey and to the west-southwest is the smaller Pease. This is a circular bowl-shaped crater with a worn outer rim. Three smaller craters overlie the northern rim. The interior floor is relatively level and is marked by several small and tiny craterlets.
