Braude (Moon)

Named after Semion Ya. Braude - Ukranian radio astronomer (1911-2003).

Braude is a lunar impact crater located on the far side. The nearest major feature is the Schrödinger crater. Also located nearby is the Wiechert crater, which is located less than 170 kilometers from the southern pole. (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.
