Pawsey is a worn impact crater that lies next to the northern outer ramparts of Wiener crater, on the far side of the Moon. Geometry, a diameter of a Circle is any straight Line segment that passes through the center of the circle and whose Endpoints are on the The depth of any crater in a solid Planet or moon - whether it is an Impact crater, a Volcanic crater, or a Subsidence crater - may Selenographic coordinates are used to refer to locations on the surface of Earth 's Moon. Joseph Lade Pawsey (May 14 1908&ndashNovember 30 1962 was an Australian born Engineer, radiophysicist and radio Astronomer. In the broadest sense the term impact crater can be applied to any depression natural or manmade resulting from the high velocity impact of a projectile with larger body Wiener is a lunar Impact crater that lies on the Moon 's far side from the Earth. Far Side of the Moon, in original French, La face cachée de la lune, is a 2003 film by Robert Lepage. To the east-northeast of Pawsey is the large Campbell crater, and further to the west is Bridgman crater. Campbell is a large lunar crater that is located in the Northern hemisphere on the far side of the Moon. Bridgman is a lunar Impact crater that is located on the far side of the Moon.
This crater is partly overlaid by the ejecta from the younger Wiener impact, leaving an uneven formation with edges that have been blanketed by material. There is a small crater along the western rim, and another small, cup-shaped crater along the northeastern edge. Within the interior is a small, cup-shaped craterlet along the base of western inner wall.
