([/IAU%20Directions IAU Directions]) BARROW.--There are few more striking or beautiful objects at sunrise than this, mainly because of the peculiar shape of its brilliant border and the remarkable shadows of the lofty peaks on its eastern wall. There is a notable narrow gap in the rampart on the E., which appears to extend to the level of the floor. The walls, especially on the S., are very irregular, and include two large deep craters and some minor depressions. If the formation is observed when its W. wall is on the morning terminator, a fine view is obtained of the remarkable crater-row which winds round the N. side of [/Goldschmidt Goldschmidt]. Barrow is about 40 miles in diameter. According to Schmidt, there is one crater in the interior, a little S.W. of the centre.
