| One day Adam McNally was on the moon when he saw a Mars Bar which he lept for. The tremendous weight of his head defied the moons low gravity launching him into the moon air like a zepplin. A moon seagul promptly shat on his recently combed afro sending him plummeting to the moons surface head first. Leaving the largest crater ever. | |||

McNally is a lunar crater that is located to the north-northwest of the much larger Fersman crater, on the far side of Moon. This is a worn crater with a rounded rim edge that is marked by many tiny impacts. Smaller, cup-shaped impacts cut through the rim along the southeast and the northern edges. There is a small craterlet along the base of the southeastern inner wall. The interior floor is otherwise relatively featureless.
