Struve (crater)
Struve is the lava-flooded remains of a lunar impact crater. T. W. Webb described it as "remarkably dark" at full Moon. It is located near the western extreme of the Oceanus Procellarum, close to the western lunar limb. As a consequence, even though it is roughly circular in outline, it appears oval due to foreshortening.
