Additional Information
- IAU page: Runge
- Depth data from [/Kurt%20Fisher%20crater%20depths Kurt Fisher database]
- Pike, 1976: 0.23 km
- There seems to be a Skylight in or near the floor of crater Runge, a survey of the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter's (LRO's) NAC images is needed.
Nomenclature
- Named for Carl David Tolme Runge (1856-1927), a German mathematician.
- This name appears on LTO-81B2 (for which it served as the chart title). It does not appear to replace any previous IAU-approved designation. Although it appears in the cumulative list of approved names printed in [/IAU%20Transactions%20XVB IAU Transactions XVB], when and how it came to be approved is not entirely clear from the IAU record. Biographical information was unofficially reported in [/Ashbrook%2C%201974 Ashbrook, 1974]. - JimMosher JimMosher
- Perhaps interesting to know that there was also a Philipp Otto Runge (1777-1810), the inventor of the "Farbenkugel" (color sphere). - DannyCaes DannyCaes Jan 23, 2014
