Additional Information
- Depth data from Kurt Fisher database
- Pike, 1976: 0.52 km
- Westfall, 2000: 0.52 km
- Satellite crater Baily K is on the ALPO list of bright ray craters.
Nomenclature
- Named for Francis Baily (28 April 1774 – 30 August 1844), an English astronomer, most famous for his observations of 'Baily's Beads' during an eclipse of the Sun.
- The shallow rille which runs straight through Baily is unofficially called Rima Baily by D.Caes.
- The system of rilles and the elongated depression south-southwest of Baily B are unofficially called Rimae Baily B by D.Caes.
