Dollond (crater)

Dollond crater and its satellite craters taken from Earth in 2012 at the University of Hertfordshire's Bayfordbury Observatory with the telescopes Meade LX200 14" and Lumenera Skynyx 2-1

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Dollond.

The following craters have been renamed by the IAU.

• Dolland C — See Lindsay.

Dollond T is the closest named feature to the Apollo 16 landing site, other than the features that were named by the astronauts (such as North Ray and South Ray craters).[2]
