A prominent crater near the landing site that served as the major landmark for orbital tracking and for LM descent. It is old enough that its original sharp rim morphology has been eroded down.
Description: Wikipedia
Index (not really a page for craterlet Index, it's an overview of the surface activities of Apollo 15, quite an interesting page!).
Additional Information
The Landing Site Name "Index" is plotted on Topophotomap 41B4/S1 .
Nomenclature
Astronaut-named feature, Apollo 15 site.
The naming of that craterlet (Index) seems to have been a complicated happening! (see Wikipedia page mentioned above).
