  • Note: Belyaev can be found in LAC 48 of the USGS Digital Atlas of the Moon, however, as this LAC is currently under construction (as of 7 June 2009 at time of writing), updates should be checked for.

Description

Belyaev's worn-down appearance suggests an old crater. Situated between two rims of the Moscoviense Basin -- whose main rim is 445 km wide and of the Nectarian period (3.92 - 3.85 bn years), the crater lies on ejecta deposits from that basin and so obviously is younger. Several small craters ranging from 2 to 5 kilometres lie on the rim of Belyaev, while a much larger one about 20 km across has totally wiped out its south-west portion. The floor looks relatively flat, interupted only by a series of hills that predominantly run in a NW-SE direction. - JohnMoore2 JohnMoore2
