Additional Information
- Lipskiy is the named feature closest to the exact center of the Moon's farside.
Nomenclature
- Named for Yurii Naumovich Lipskiy (1909-1978), a Soviet selenographer. As founder of the Department of Lunar and Planetary Physics of the Sternberg Institute at Moscow State University, he was, in 1959, one of the first to interpret images of the Moon's farside.
- The name was approved in IAU Transactions XVIIB (1979). Its placement presumably honors Lipskiy's pioneering work on the farside.
- Strange to say, Lipskiy's name is absent on the revised edition of the National Geographic Society's map THE EARTH'S MOON (revised in 2003, reprinted in 2014). - DannyCaes Oct 7, 2015
