Tags: Crater.
Tempel is the remnant of a lunar crater whose outer rim has been eroded indented and reshaped by subsequent impacts and lava flows. It is attached to the eastern rim of the crater Agrippa in an area that has been resurfaced by old lava flows. To the southwest is Godin and to the east lies the small bowl-shaped Whewell.There is a gap in the northwestern rim of Tempel that forms a protrusion that follows the rim of Agrippa.
