Description
Charlier lies some 200 km away from the outer rim of the Coulomb-Sarton Basin to its north and some 800 km away from the Hertzsprung Basin to its south -- both pre-Nectarian (~ 4.6 to 3.92 bn years) in age. Charlier is slightly younger (Nectarian ~ 3.92 to 3.85 bn years old) than the above-mentioned basins, but their presence has, undoubtedly, left signatures of secondary cratering and ejecta deposits on the crater. These effects, particularly secondary cratering, can clearly be seen on Charlier's western rim-sector, its southern rim-sector, and across most of its floor in the south-eastern sector; where countless, numerous small craters ranging from 10 to 25 km in diameter have impacted. The north-eastern sector of the crater's rim has escaped any major impacts, but it does show signs of terracing, erosion and smaller-related impacting. - JohnMoore2
