Scheiner is a lunar impact crater that lies to the west of the enormous walled plain Clavius . To the southeast near the rim of Clavius is the crater Blancanus . The rim of Scheiner is worn, eroded, and marked with multiple impacts. It is most heavily worn in the northern part, where a cluster of craterlets covers the entrance to a low valley leading to the north. The floor of the crater has several craterlets, including Scheiner A that lies near the midpoint. There is also a low ridge crossing part of the eastern floor.
Satellite craters [ edit ]
By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Scheiner.
