Nomenclature
The IAU crater name honors Edward Arthur Milne FRS (February 14, 1896 – September 21, 1950), a British mathematician and astrophysicist. Milne's earlier work was in mathematical astrophysics. From 1932 he also worked on the problem of the "expanding universe" and in Relativity, Gravitation, and World-Structure (1935), proposed an alternative to Albert Einstein's general relativity theory. His later work, concerned with the interior structure of stars, aroused controversy. Milne was president of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1943–1945.
- The impact basin is named after the crater.
