LO-IV-071H Steinheil is the crater in the upper left, overlaying similarly-sized [/Watt Watt] (to its southeast). The sharp-shadowed 6-km circle of [/Watt Watt] B can be seen on the south floor of [/Watt Watt], with 10-km [/Watt Watt] A and 12-km [/Watt Watt] B beyond it (outside the rim). In the upper left corner of this view are 17-km Steinheil X and 16-km Steinheil Y (only partially visible).

Additional Information

Depth data from [/Kurt%20Fisher%20crater%20depths Kurt Fisher database]

  • Cherrington, 1969: 2.1 km


Nomenclature

  • Carl August von Steinheil (October 12, 1801 – September 14, 1870) was a German astronomer and physicist. He founded the optical-astronomical company C.A. Steinheil und Söhne to build telescopes, spectroscopes and photometers (his invention, used to measure brightness). In 1852 he added refractors and reflectors with silver-covered mirrors to the production.
  • [/Whitaker Whitaker] (p. 200) notes that the combination of Steinheil and [/Watt Watt] was labeled Zamosci on [/Langrenus van Langren]'s 1645 map. Whitaker does not explain where the name Steinheil came from, but evidently in Elger's day the entire structure was known by that name. The name [/Watt Watt], for the eastern part, was apparently introduced by [/Schmidt Schmidt] ([/Whitaker Whitaker], p. 224). - JimMosher JimMosher
