Avery (Moon)

Named after Oswald Theodore Avery - Canadian doctor (1877-1955).

Avery is a small lunar crater located near the eastern limb. This is a circular, bowl-shaped formation with a small interior floor. It lies near the western edge of Mare Smythii. To the east is the crater Haldane, and to the southwest is Carrillo. (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.
