Additional Information

  • Discovered by Maxwell & Andre (1981)


Nomenclature

Basins filled with maria are named for the mare, and basins that were previously recognized as craters still bear the crater name. Basins located between craters have the names of the two opposite craters with a hyphen in between, in this case Balmer and Kapteyn.
