Tags: Crater.
Vernadskiy is a lunar crater on the far side of the Moon behind the visible eastern limb. It lies to the west-northwest of the smaller crater Siedentopf. To the south is Gavrilov and much farther to the west is Meggers.This is a formation that has seen better days. The outer rim has been bombarded by a myriad of lesser impacts producing an eroded and irregular edge. Attached to the outher rim to the northeast is the satellite crater Vernadskiy B an equally worn crater.
