Boussingault C (Moon)

Satellite Feature of Boussingault

Named after Jean Baptiste Dieudonne Boussingault - French chemist (1802-1887).

Boussingault is a large lunar crater that lies near the rugged southeast limb. Because of its location, Boussingault appears highly oblong in shape due to foreshortening. To the southwest is the crater Boguslawsky, and almost attached to the northeast rim is Helmholtz. East-southeast lies the crater Neumayer. (wikipedia entry)
