Cannizzaro (Moon)

Named after Stanislao Cannizzaro - Italian chemist (1826-1910).

Cannizzaro is a lunar crater that is located as seen from the Earth, just beyond the northwestern limb. It lies in a region of the surface that is sometimes brought into view due to the effects of libration, but not much detail can be seen since this feature is viewed from the side. The crater lies across the southwestern rim of the much larger-walled plain Poczobutt. It is a worn crater with a rim that has been eroded by impacts. (wikipedia entry)

A crater is a circular depression likely created by an impact event. On the Moon they are named after deceased scientists, polar explorers, astronauts or cosmonauts.
