Acosta is a small lunar impact crater located just to the north of the prominent crater Langrenus, near the east edge of Mare Fecunditatis. To the west are the trio of Atwood, Naonobu, and Bilharz. Acosta is named after the Portuguese naturalist Cristóvão da Costa.
Born is a small lunar impact crater located near the eastern edge of the Moon, to the northeast of the prominent crater Langrenus. It was previously designated Maclaurin Y before being named by the IAU in 1979. Maclaurin itself lies to the north.
Atwood is a small earth moon impact crater that is located on the Mare Fecunditatis, to the northwest of the prominent crater Langrenus. It forms a triple-crater formation with Naonobu attached to the north rim and Bilharz near the west rim.
de Gerlache is a lunar impact crater that is located along the southern limb of the Moon, within a crater diameter of Shackleton at the south pole. From the Earth this crater is seen from the edge, and it lies in perpetual darkness. Thus little or no detail can be seen of this crater, other than the edge of the rim. However, the crater is clearly visible in Earth-based radar images. The crater is roughly circular, with some slight wear. No craters of note overlie the rim, although some formations may be attached to the southern and western edges.
Bondarenko is a lunar impact crater on the far side of the Moon. It is located to the northeast of the large, dark-floored crater Tsiolkovskiy, and south of the crater Chauvenet. This is a worn crater formation with an irregular floor, similar to other craters in the area, which are covered by ejecta from Tsiolkovskiy.
Florensky is a lunar impact crater that is attached to the northeastern rim of the larger crater Vernadskiy. It is located on the far side of the Moon and cannot be directly seen from the Earth. The rim of this crater has been heavily eroded and it forms an irregular ring about the uneven interior. This crater was previously identified as Vernadskiy B before being assigned a name by the IAU in 1985.
Erlanger is a very deep lunar impact crater that lies near the north pole of the Moon. Due to its position near the lunar north pole, sunlight only rarely falls on the bottom, and the 2008 Chandrayaan-1 probe hoped to find that ice from comet impacts had accumulated there. Erlanger is one of the Moon's permanently shadowed craters.
Fibiger is a lunar impact crater located on the lunar near side near the northern pole. The nearest major feature is the Byrd crater. The crater was adopted and named after Danish pathologist Johannes Andreas Grib Fibiger in 2009 by the IAU. Located just north of Fibiger are craters Erlanger and Peary, which are 9.9 km and 73 km in diameter, respectively.
Florey is a lunar impact crater on the lunar near side near the northern pole. Florey is directly adjacent to Byrd crater to the Southeast and Peary crater to the North. The crater is named after Australian scientist Howard Florey. The crater was named by the IAU in 2009.
Gore is a lunar impact crater located on the lunar near side near the northern pole. Major nearby features include Florey crater to the Southeast, Peary crater to the East-Northeast, and Byrd crater to the Southeast. The crater was adopted and named after John Ellard Gore by the IAU in 2009.
Grignard is a lunar impact crater on the lunar near side near the northern pole. The crater is located Northeast of Sylvester crater and is directly adjacent to the Hermite crater. The crater was adopted and named after French chemist Victor Grignard by the IAU in 2009.
Kocher is a lunar impact crater located on the lunar far side near the southern pole. The crater is located Southeast of the Ashbrook and Drygalski craters. Kocher was adopted and named after Swiss physician Emil Kocher by the IAU in 2009.
Kuhn is a lunar impact crater located on the lunar far side near the Northern lunar pole. The crater is located east of the Kocher crater, Southeast of the prominent Ashbrook crater and just north of the southern lunar pole. Kuhn was adopted and named after German chemist Richard Kuhn by the IAU in 2008.
Laveran is a lunar impact crater located on the lunar far side near the southern pole. The crater is located in between the prominent craters Schrödinger, Zeeman, Ashbrook, and South of De Forest. Laveran was adopted and named after French physician Charles Louis Alphonse Laveran by the IAU in 2009.
Lenard is the former name of a lunar impact crater located on the lunar far side near the northern pole. The crater forms some of the wall of the crater Hermite, and is located North of the craters Lovelace and Froelich. Lenard was named after German physicist Philipp Lenard by the IAU, formally adopted as such in 2008.
Nefedʹev is a lunar impact crater located on the lunar far side near the southern pole. The crater is located directly adjacent to the Schrödinger crater and East of craters Ganswindt and Idelʹson. Nefedʹev was adopted and named after Russian astronomer Anatoly Nefedʹev by the IAU in 2009.
Svedberg is a lunar impact crater located on the lunar near side near the southern pole. The crater is located Northeast of Scott crater, adjacent to von Baeyer crater, and South of the prominent crater Demonax. The crater was adopted and named after Swedish chemist Theodor Svedberg by the IAU in 2009.
von Baeyer is a lunar impact crater located on the lunar near side near the southern pole. The crater is located directly adjacent to Svedberg crater and Northeast and South of prominent craters Scott and Demonax, respectively. Baeyer was adopted and named after German chemist Adolf von Baeyer by the IAU in 2009.
Cai Lun is a lunar impact crater located on the lunar far side near the northern pole. The crater is located in between the prominent craters Haskin and Nansen. Cai Lun was adopted and named after Chinese inventor Cai Lun by the IAU in August, 2010.
Slater is an impact crater near the south pole of the Moon. Like nearby Shackleton, the floor of the crater is in nearly perpetual darkness.
