Lipskiy

Additional Information

  • Lipskiy is the named feature closest to the exact center of the Moon's farside.


Nomenclature

  • Named for Yurii Naumovich Lipskiy (1909-1978), a Soviet selenographer. As founder of the Department of Lunar and Planetary Physics of the [/Sternberg%20Institute Sternberg Institute] at Moscow State University, he was, in 1959, one of the first to [/Farside%20Names interpret] images of the Moon's farside.
  • The name was approved in [/IAU%20Transactions%20XVIIB IAU Transactions XVIIB] (1979). Its placement presumably honors Lipskiy's pioneering work on the farside.
  • Strange to say, Lipskiy's name is absent on the revised edition of the National Geographic Society's map THE EARTH'S MOON (revised in 2003, reprinted in 2014). - DannyCaes DannyCaes Oct 7, 2015
