Sylvester is a lunar impact crater that is located near the north pole of the Moon along the northern limb in the libration zone. It lies just to the south-southeast of the craters Grignard and Hermite; the latter of which is within one crater diameter of the pole. South of Sylvester is Pascal. Due to its location Sylvester receives sunlight at only a low angle.This crater is generally circular with a sharp-edged rim that has received only a moderate amount of wear.
