Additional Information
Depth data from Kurt Fisher database
- Westfall, 2000: 1 km
- From the shadows in LO-IV-124H, the peak on Weiss’s southeast rim is about 1630 m tall. Weiss E is 1250-1300 m deep. - JimMosher JimMosher
Weiss E
Notice incipient floor-fracturing. LO IV-125.
Nomenclature
Edmund; German astronomer, mathematician, physicist (1837-1917).
- According to Whitaker (p. 226), this name was introduced by Krieger and König.
- The bright double ray NNW of Tycho, which is running over Weiss, is unofficially called the Double Weiss Ray by Danny Caes. The "source" of the western one of this double ray is probably the chain of craterlets near Tycho U and Heinsius Q (north-northwest of Tycho itself, unofficially called Catena Tycho).
