'''Bergman''' is a small [[moon|lunar]] [[impact crater]] that is located on the [[Far side (Moon)|far side]] of the [[Moon]]. It is located on the interior floor of the walled plain [[Mendeleev (crater)|Mendeleev]], and is attached to the edge of the inner wall to the northwest. On the same walled basin are the craters [[Moissan (crater)|Moissan]] to the south and [[Richards (lunar crater)|Richards]] to the west. The rim of Bergman is roughly circular, and the formation is generally bowl-shaped. The western half of the interior floor is covered with a slope of [[scree]], leaving a small level floor on the eastern side.
