Additional Information
- Depth data from Kurt Fisher database
- Pike, 1976: 3.85 km
- Westfall, 2000: 3.85 km
- Cherrington, 1969: 0.7 km
- Central peak height
- Sekiguchi, 1972: 1.2 km - fatastronomer
Nomenclature
- Adrien; French astronomer, physicist (1622-1691).
- Harold Hill called the southeastern corner of Mare Crisium Promontorium Auzout Delta (see bibliography below).
- Auzout Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta (four sections of the southeastern rim of Mare Crisium, near Auzout) (see the greenish map of the moon in the Dutch classic Op Ontdekking in het Maanland by A.J.M.Wanders). These four Greek lettered sections are not mentioned on chart SLC A4 from the System of Lunar Craters, 1966.
North Valley
- Southeast of Mare Crisium (near Condorcet, Auzout, Firmicus, and Apollonius) runs the unofficially named North Valley/ Vallis North; or Vermiform Valley. These unofficial names are included in the Hitchhiker's Guide to Rukl 38.
