Additional Information


Nomenclature

  • Named for Ernst Debes (1840-1923), a German cartographer. "The Leipzig Geographical Institute of Wagner & Debes was the foremost German cartographic printer and publisher of cartographic work in the 19th- and early 20th century." Debes had been a student of Petermann. In 1922 he published a Moon atlas and "Handkarte." He is credited with adding one name later adopted by the IAU: the Jura Mountains.
  • This feature is Catalog number 179 in Mary Blagg's Collated List where it is noted that it was called Tralles m by Julius Schmidt, but unnamed by the other authorities.
  • In Named Lunar Formations the replacement name Debes is attributed to Karl Müller.
  • Kuiper reports in Table III of his Photographic Lunar Atlas (approved by the IAU) that he has modified the IAU boundary of this feature: Now applies only to the northern component of the I.A.U. Debes.
  • The designations Debes A and B for the southern components appear to have been introduced in the System of Lunar Craters.
