Vega is an eroded lunar crater that is located in the southeastern part of the Moon. It lies on the near side and so can be viewed from the Earth. Less than one crater diameter to the east-southeast is the slightly smaller Peirescius. About one and a half crater diameters to the west is the long Vallis Rheita.This crater has been worn and eroded by a history of impacts. Vega B overlies the southern part of the southern floor and inner wall.
