Roche is a large crater on the far side of the Moon from the Earth. The prominent crater Pauli lies across the southern rim of Roche and the outer rampart of Pauli covers a portion of Roche’s interior floor. To the north-northwest of Roche is the crater Eötvös and just to the west-northwest lies Rosseland.The western rim of Roche has been somewhat distorted and straightened. The rim as a whole is worn and eroded with multiple tiny craterlets marking the surface.
