context_page_description: Yeats is an impact crater on the planet Mercury, 100 kilometers in diameter. It is located at 9.2°N, 34.6°W, south of the crater Li Po and southwest of the crater Sinan. Its rim is circular and intact, except where an indentation is made by a craterlet on the north side. It is bordered by a smaller, unnamed crater to the northwest. On the otherwise featureless crater floor is a small, central mountain. The crater is named after William Butler Yeats, an Irish poet and dramatist. The name was adopted by the International Astronomical Union in 1976.
