Mons Hadley

{{Main|Hadley–Apennine#Rima Hadley}}

This sinuous lunar rille follows a course generally to the northeast, toward the Mons Hadley peak, for which it is named. This feature is centered at selenographic coordinates 25.0° N, 3.0° E, and lies within a diameter of 80 km. It begins at the crater Béla, an elongated formation with the long axis oriented to the northwest.

Four small craters near this rille have been assigned names by the IAU. These are listed in the table below.

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Mons Hadley.

The crater Joy was formerly known as Hadley A, prior to being renamed by the IAU in 1973.Gazetteer of Planetary Nomenclature, International Astronomical Union (IAU) Working Group for Planetary System Nomenclature (WGPSN), [http://planetarynames.wr.usgs.gov/Feature/2851 Joy] Feature 2851
