Stoletov (crater)

Stoletov is a lunar impact crater on the far side of the Moon. It is located in the northern hemisphere, less than one crater diameter to the north of Kulik. To the northwest of Stoletov is Montgolfier.

This is a worn and eroded crater formation. There is a merged cluster of small impacts along the northern rim and small craterlets across the southern and western rims. The inner walls and interior floor are relatively featureless. There is a small craterlet on the floor to the south of the midpoint.

The crater was formally named by the IAU in 1970 after Russian physicist Aleksandr G. Stoletov.
