AS15-M-1679 The IAU-named minor features in this small part of the Apollo 15 Metric camera image are [/Ann Ann], [/Michael Michael] and [/Patricia Patricia]. The trough running perpendicular to Patricia in the lower right is a small piece of [/Rima%20Bradley Rima Bradley]. For named features in the area adjoning this on the left see [/Kathleen Kathleen] (which is attached to the same rille as [/Ann Ann] and [/Michael Michael]). The low-albedo region in which these three names are anchored seems to have been known as "Lacus Mozart ", shortly after the scientific mission of Apollo 15.

Nomenclature
English female name.
- According to [/NASA%20RP-1097 NASA RP-1097], "Patricia" is a [/Minor%20Feature Minor Feature] whose name was originally intended only for use in connection with Topophotomap 41A3/S1(on which it is plotted).
- The Topophotomap on which this name was proposed shows only the extreme western end of Patricia, which looks elliptical (similar to the shapes of [/Ann Ann] and [/Michael Michael]); and in the [/IAU%20Planetary%20Gazetteer IAU Planetary Gazetteer] it is classified as a “crater.” But given its similarity in form to [/Rima%20Bradley Rima Bradley] it seems possible that if the map maker had seen more of it, it might have been called “Rima Patricia”. - JimMosher JimMosher
- Patricia (Pérez Prado) (the most ideal way to try to remember the name of that feature at Palus Putredinis).
