Frame 25, made by Zond 8, shows Mariotte a little bit below of the point "halfway" between the frame's central cross and the white cut-out void at the frame's right margin. Mariotte is the pronounced crater with the "bend" in the "upper" (eastern) part of its rim.

Additional Information
- Mariotte's discovery of the way Parhelia ("sundogs"), Parselenia ("moondogs"), and the halo of R:22 degrees are created (in sunlit or moonlit hexagonal ice crystals), is described in Carl B. Boyer's book The Rainbow, from Myth to Mathematics.- DannyCaes Jun 8, 2014
Nomenclature
- Edme Mariotte (c. 1620 - May 12, 1684) was a French physicist. Mariotte is best known for his recognition in 1676 of Boyle's Law about the inverse relationship of volume and pressures in gases. In 1660 he had discovered the eye's blind spot. He published many original papers upon a great variety of physical subjects, such as the motion of fluids, the nature of colour, the notes of the trumpet, the barometer, the fall of bodies, the recoil of guns, the freezing of water etc.
- Mariotte Y, a crater at 23°15' South/ 140°30' West, was once called Egnitis or Eginitis. The IAU's new name for Mariotte Y is Murakami.
