Satellite craters

[edit]

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Mons La Hire.

La Hire	Coordinates	Diameter, km
A	28°32′N23°28′W / 28.53°N 23.46°W /28.53; -23.46 (La Hire A)	5
B	27°41′N23°02′W / 27.69°N 23.03°W /27.69; -23.03 (La Hire B)	4

La Hire A is on the northeast side ofDorsum Zirkel, and La Hire B is on the southwest side.

The following craters have been renamed by theIAU.
