Mendeleev is a large lunar impact crater that is located on the far side of the Moon, as seen from the Earth. The southern rim of this walled plain just crosses the lunar equator. Intruding into the eastern rim of Mendeleev is the crater Schuster. Nearly on the opposite side, the smaller Hartmann intrudes into west-southwestern rim. The crater is named after the Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev. This is a Hasselblad image from film magazine 151. The photograph carries the watermark 'A KODAK® PAPER' on the verso, and is red numbered, which provides certainty that this print was produced in the era specified. key words:
