Smith is a
lunarimpact crater that is located within the huge walled plain
Apollo, on the
far side of the
Moon. This crater is attached to the west-southwestern outer rim of
Scobee and it overlies the northern edge of the inner
mountain ring within
Apollo. To the north lies
Barringer.
This crater is roughly circular and bowl-shaped, with a mildly worn outer rim.
Some piles of scree lie along the base of the inner wall in the northern part of the crater. The interior floor is relatively featureless, with a small hill at the midpoint of the crater.
