Nomenclature
- Maria Mitchell (August 1, 1818 – June 28, 1889) was an American astronomer. Using a telescope, she discovered "Miss Mitchell's Comet" (Comet 1847 VI, modern designation is C/1847 T1) in the autumn of 1847.
- Although not mentioned in [/Whitaker Whitaker], Mitchell was among the names in the original [/IAU%20nomenclature IAU nomenclature] of Blagg and Müller's [/Named%20Lunar%20Formations Named Lunar Formations] (1935). According to Chuck's copy, the name is attributed there to Schmidt. Chuck was able to verify that Schmidt (in his book) notes that Miss Mitchell was a new name in use by English observers for the crater he (and others) knew as "[/Aristoteles Aristoteles] a". Oddly the consumate English observer [/Neison%2C%201876 Neison] (who seems to have incorporated nearly all the new names of Birt and Lee into his maps), chose to use the name "[/Aristoteles Aristoteles] a" for this feature, and does not mention Miss Mitchell in his book. See the LPOD No Beer Here for what is probably the earliest map naming "[/Aristoteles Aristoteles] a". - JimMosher JimMosher

- Mitchell was also the (unofficial) name of a small crater southwest of Emory; a crater on the floor of the Taurus-Littrow Valley (explored by Gene Cernan and Jack Schmitt of Apollo 17, december 1972). Mitchell (Apollo 17 crater) - "Billy Mitchell, through his own sacrifice, showed us the practical and political reasons for being a truly air-faring nation. From the resulting foundation in aeronautics, we have moved into space, hopefully having learned his lessons well." (source: APOLLO LUNAR SURFACE JOURNAL, Eric M. Jones).
E.Mitchell
- We should add the name E.Mitchell near the landingsite of Apollo 14, north of Fra Mauro (Edgar D. Mitchell) (1930-2016, sixth Apollo astronaut on the moon, Apollo 14, 1971).- DannyCaes DannyCaes Feb 7, 2016
