Bobone (Moon)

Named after Jorge Bobone - Argentinean astronomer (1901-1958).

Bobone is an old, heavily eroded crater formation that lies on the far side. It is attached to the southwest rim of the large satellite crater Kovalevskaya Q, which has its northeast rim overlaid by Kovalevskaya itself. To the west-southwest is Bronk. (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.
