Additional Information
- IAU page: Theophrastus

- Viscardy, 1985: 1.7 km
- The shadow in LO-IV-073H indicates a depth of 1735 m. Westfall and Viscardy are probably quoting the value from LTO-43D3. - JimMosher JimMosher
Nomenclature
- Named for Theophrastus (c. 372-287 B.C.), a Greek philosopher and scientist.
- This replacement name for a formerly [/lettered%20crater lettered crater] was introduced on LTO-43D3 (for which it served as the chart title). It appears in the cumulative list of approved names in [/IAU%20Transactions%20XVB IAU Transactions XVB] (1973). Since it does not appear in any prior [/IAU%20Transactions IAU Transactions], it was probably approved at the 1973 meeting. Biographical information was unofficially reported in [/Ashbrook%2C%201974 Ashbrook, 1974]. - JimMosher JimMosher
