Description


Description: Elger

(IAU Directions) SABINE.--The more easterly of a remarkable pair of ring-plains, of which Ritter is the other member, situated on the W. side of the Mare Tranquillitatis a little N. of the lunar equator. It is about 18 miles in diameter, and has a low continuous border, which includes a central mountain on a bright floor. From a mountain arm extending from the S. wall, run in a easterly direction two nearly parallel clefts skirting the edge of the Mare. The more southerly of these terminates near a depression on a rocky headland projecting from the coast-line, and the other stops a few miles short of this. A third cleft, commencing at a point N.W. of the headland, runs in the same direction up to a small crater near the N. end of another cape-like projection. At 8 h. on April 9, 1886, when the morning terminator bisected Sabine, I traced it still farther in the same direction. All these clefts exhibit considerable variations in width, but become narrower as they proceed eastwards.

Nomenclature

  • Sir Edward Sabine KCB FRS (October 14, 1788 – May 26, 1883) was an Irish astronomer, scientist, ornithologist and explorer.
  • Related material on other features named after Irish scientists.
  • Dark Crater (NASA-related nickname for the officially unnamed bowl-shaped crater immediately southeast of Sabine) (this Dark Crater was one of the signposts during the early equatorial missions of the Apollo Program) (see also the nomenclature overlay of the LROC Act-React Quick Map) (seems to have been known as Sabine AD on SLC-chart B5) (System of Lunar Craters) (received no letter designation on Chart 58 in the Times Atlas of the Moon).
