- Although Faye is not mentioned in the LPI's search list for orbital Apollo photographs, it WAS captured on several frames made by Apollo 16's south-looking mapping/metric Fairchild camera, such as frame AS16-M-0707, in which Faye and Donati (and their central peaks) are noticeable near the central part of the curved horizon.

(IAU Directions) FAYE.--The direction of the chain swerves considerably towards the W. at this formation, which resembles Donati both in size and in irregularity of outline. The wall, where it is not broken, is slightly terraced. There is a craterlet on the S. rim and a central crater in the interior.
