Resnik (crater) be smaller and
Resnik is a small lunar crater that is located within the interior of the huge Apollo impact basin, on the Moon’s far side. Apollo is a double-ringed formation with a central floor that has been flooded with basaltic-lava. Resnik is located at the northern edge of the dark area of the surface. It lies to the southwest of the smaller McAuliffe crater.
This is a roughly circular, bowl-shaped crater. Overlaying the northwestern rim is a smaller, cup-shaped impact crater with a higher albedo than Resnik. A small, partly submerged crater is attached to the exterior along the southern rim, and a portion of a submerged crater rim lies just to the east of this feature along the same rim.
