Nomenclature
Charles Wesley; American astronomer (1872-1954).
- This name appears on LTO-81C1. It does not appear to replace any previous IAU-approved designation. Although it appears in the cumulative list of approved names printed in IAU Transactions XVB, when and how it came to be approved is not entirely clear from the IAU record. - JimMosher JimMosher
- According to LTO 81-C1, a crater south of Elmer is called Novalis. Who was Novalis? See this Wikipedia-page.
