McAdie (crater)

McAdie is a lunar impact crater that lies on the far side of the Moon. It is located to the southwest of the larger crater Seyfert, and northeast of the crater Pavlov.

McAdie is a relatively well-formed crater with a sharp-edged rim and a somewhat uneven interior floor. There are some minor terraces along the inner walls. A small crater lies along the eastern inner wall, and several other tiny craterlets mark the interior surface. The crater shows little sign of significant erosion.

The crater is named after American meteorologist Alexander George McAdie.
