eponym=Richard A. Prager Prager is an impact crater on the Moon's far side. It is located just to the northeast of Love crater. Further to the south-southeast lies Lane crater. To the north of this crater and leading away to the northwest is a crater chain that has been designated "Catena Gregory".

This is an eroded crater formation, particularly along the northern rim which is cut across by several small craters associated with the "Catena Gregory". There is a worn and somewhat elongated crater attached to the souther outer rim. The remainder of the rim is pitted by small and tiny craterlets. The interior floor is also marked by several small craterlets, including a grouping of three near the mid-point.

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 Prager crater.
