Krasovskiy J (Moon)

Satellite Feature of Krasovskiy

Named after Theodosy Nicolaevich Krasovskiy - Soviet geodesist (1878-1948).

Krasovsky is an impact crater on the far side. It is located about three crater diameters to the north-northwest of Daedalus. It is otherwise isolated from impact craters of note, with the nearest comparable feature being Tiselius to the west-northwest. The rim of this crater is well-defined, and has not suffered significant impact erosion. (wikipedia entry)
