Faraday is a lunar impact crater in the southern highlands of the Moon. It lies across the southeast rim of the larger crater Stöfler, and the northwest rim of Faraday forms a wide rampart across the otherwise flat floor of Stöfler. To the west of Faraday is Maurolycus.
The rim of Faraday has been significantly overlain by subsequent impacts, most notably by an overlapping pair across the southwest rim and a crater across the northwest rim. There is a low central ridge running from the southwest to the northeast, nearly dividing the crater floor in half. The floor is nearly flat in the northwest half.
Faraday may refer to:
Faraday is a Florham Park, New Jersey company that specializes in fire protection systems.
