Named after Andre Danjon - French astronomer (1890-1967).
Danjon, is a lunar crater on the far side. It lies less than a crater diameter to the east-southeast of the larger crater Langemak. To the east-northeast is the crater Perepelkin, and due south lies the walled plain Fermi. The northeastern rim is overlain by the smaller crater D'Arsonval. (wikipedia entry)
