It is located at 15.5°N, 29.8°W, northeast of the crater Yeats and southeast of the crater Li Po. It has one craterlet on the south-southwestern side of the crater floor, and it has a symmetrical pit slightly west of the center. Together with a smaller unnamed crater on its southern border, the crater Sinan forms a shape similar to that of the spade found in card games. The crater is named after Mimar Sinan, a 16th-century Turkish architect. The name was adopted by the International Astronomical Union in 1976.[1][2] References1. ^{{cite web | title=USGS Astro: Planetary Nomenclature: Feature Data Search Results | work=USGS Gazetteer of Planetary Nomenclature Feature Information | url=http://planetarynames.wr.usgs.gov/jsp/FeatureNameDetail.jsp?feature=65718 | accessdate=October 27, 2007 }} {{Mercury (planet)}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Sinan (Crater)}}{{Mercury-planet-stub}}2. ^NASA World Wind 1.4.
