Nomenclature
- Named for Daniel Moreau Barringer (1860-1929) an American engineer and geologist. Barringer is best known for his persistent arguments that what is now known as Meteor (or Barringer) Crater in Arizona (but then known as Coon Butte) was caused by the impact of an iron metorite and his attempts to exploit the site commercially. Barringer's conclusions contradicted those of the eminent American geologist G. K. Gilbert, who was, ironically, an early advocate of the impact theory of lunar cratering.
