He is considered the founder of modern gas-analytical methods.
- The name Bunsen was originally proposed by [/Julius%20Schmidt Julius Schmidt] for the crater now known as [/Newcomb Newcomb]. The name was assigned to the present, previously unnamed crater in the [/Rectified%20Lunar%20Atlas Rectified Lunar Atlas] (1963) and approved by IAU in 1964.
