What is "mees"

Mees is a crater on the far side of the Moon. It is located in a part of the lunar surface that is sometimes brought into view of the Earth under conditions of favorable libration and illumination. Even at such a time, however, this feature is seen from a very low angle and little detail can be perceived.

This crater lies in the northern edge of the huge skirt of ejecta that surrounds the Mare Orientale impact basin. This feature lies several hundred kilometers to the south of Mees, where the outer mountain range Montes Cordillera is located. To the southwest of Mees is the crater Elvey and to the northeast is Einstein, both about three crater diameters distant.

Mées is a commune in the Landes department in Aquitaine in south-western France.
