Head (crater)
Head crater is a small crater in Mare Cognitum on the Moon. The name of the crater was formally adopted by the IAU in 1973.
The Apollo 12 astronauts Pete Conrad and Alan Bean landed the Lunar Module Intrepid northeast of Head crater on November 24, 1969. To the east of Head is the larger Surveyor crater. To the southwest are Bench crater and Sharp crater.
It is called Head because the pattern of craters in the area resembles that of a snowman when viewed from the east, as in the landing approach.
