Crile is a tiny lunar impact crater. It is roughly circular and cup-shaped, with interior walls that slope down to the midpoint. The crater lies in the Palus Somni, between the Mare Crisium to the east and Mare Tranquillitatis to the west.
This formation was previously designated Proclus F before being renamed by the IAU in 1976. Proclus itself is located to the north-northeast. The crater was named for American surgeon George Washington Crile.[1]
