AS17-M-0597 This small area northeast of Dawes, on the border between Mare Serenitatis and Mare Tranquillitatis, is densely populated with minor feature names because it was plotted on two of NASA's high-resolution Topophotomaps. The upper group of Robert, Mary and Isis appears on 42C3/S1 and the lower group of Osiris, Catena Brigitte, Rima Marcello, Rima Reiko and Jerik is on 42C3/S2.

Additional Information


Nomenclature

  • English male name.
  • According to NASA RP-1097, "Robert" is a Minor Feature whose name was originally intended only for use in connection with Topophotomap 42C3/S1(on which it is plotted). It is completely unclear why "Robert" was singled out for naming and the similar crater almost touching it on the northeast was ignored.
