Additional Information
- Mare area of 47,300 km^2 according to measurements by Jim Whitford-Stark.
- Rim height 550 m
- Discovered by Stewart-Alexander (1978)
Nomenclature
Basins filled with maria are named for the mare, and basins that were previously recognized as craters still bear the crater name. Basins located between craters have the names of the two opposite craters with a hyphen in between, in this case Freundlich and Sharonov.
