(IAU Directions) HYPATIA.--A ring-plain, about 30 miles in extreme length, of very abnormal shape, on the W. side of the Mare, N.N.W. of Theophilus, with a wall rising at a peak on the W. to a height of more than 7,000 feet above a dusky floor, which does not apparently contain any detail. A small crater breaks the uniformity of the border on the E. Beyond the wall on the S.W. lies the fine bright crater Hypatia A, with another less prominent adjoining it on the S.E.

Additional Information
- Depth data from Kurt Fisher database
Westfall, 2000: 1.5 km
Cherrington, 1969: 1.4 km - Satellite crater Hypatia F is on the ALPO list of bright ray craters.
- Hypatia A is a thermal anomaly crater, implying a youthful age - Moore et al, 1980
Nomenclature
- Hypatia of Alexandria; Egyptian mathematician and philosopher (woman)(c. 370-415).
- This name has continued unchanged since its original usage for this feature on Riccioli's map (Whitaker, p. 218).
