Thiel is a lunar impact crater on the far side of the Moon. It is located to the south of the larger Quetelet crater, and to the north-northwest of Charlier crater. This is a sharp-edged, roughly circular crater with a small impact along the outer rim to the north-northeast. It is otherwise relatively free from impact erosion, and the interior is unmarked by significant craters. The inner walls are uneven in places, with piles of scree along the base.

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater mid-point that is closest to Thiel crater.
